FensterRV - not a bad price...depends if there is an allowance for a trade...I'm sure my "price" was inflated but my trade was shown at more than wholesale....

Door question:
I like how the gas strut dampens the operation of the door, but is only allows you to open the door 90 degrees. Has anyone removed this temporarily? It would be helpful at times when loading.
My water heater is where the door would go against the side, so you could not leave it in the "full open" position.

My price does not include paint and I stayed with the 13.5 A\C unit. I was quoted 4k for the paint option which would have put us at 25.8k. FYI 2 TV's are standard

I feel like I got ripped off now! All of those sounds like really good prices and I thought I got a really gOod deal on mine.
I paid $26,000 almost a year ago. If I wouldn't have gotten that one I would have had to wait at least two more months to get one! And it is from a good respectable dealer that I actually enjoyed dealing with, so that, to me, is worth something as well.

Hey Earls! For all the veteran Bullet owners, can we discuss common problems to look for when we first pick ours up? Or maybe a top 5 modification list? I know they sometimes have the tanks labeled incorrectly and I've read the stablizer jacks they give you are crap. Any help would be great. Virtual Garage's blog is down right excellent.

Hey guys, I was quoted 26,800 with the paint option, comfort package, thermal package, 2nd TV and 15,000 BTU- Pretty sure it has every option. I'm in NJ but worked off a price quoted in Ohio. Do you guys have the full paint option. If you don't I wont feel as bad lol [emoticon]

I too go to sign the papers on Saturday!

It has the newer paint which I'm still up in the air about, and I have to choose between the Sage interior or the Godiva. No potential offense, but not a fan of the blackberry.

Hope to hear from you all.

Mine did not include the paint. Sounds like you have a good deal.

okay so when i got my premier 31bhpr the water tanks were full so i didn't notice the sensor didn't work. i finally got around to looking into the problem. yeah it is under warranty but don't feel like losing my trailer for a month for an easy fix. there were actually two problems. a leak when i filled my water tank and the sensor would read full with any amount of water in the tank and then read empty when it was bone dry.

so i removed five self tapping screws from the under belly on the port side of my trailer.
this i what it looked like. if you notice the three bolts on the left, i had already removed the wires before i realized this info might help you guys.

the leak was coming from the fill tube. a few turns of a screw and that was all fixed up. weird that it just loosened itself after a few trips, but better than a break.

[image]

this is the correct position of the wires. all nuts were loose when i got to them, and the red one was on bottom and the the green on was on top. that is why it read full when i put any amount of water in there.

[image]

im not sure what these wires are for, but they were just laying there.

anyway who wants to drop off their trailer for a month and have to fight with keystone about a warranty? i am stoked that they were easy fixes, and now i know what that looks like in there.

Mine is currently at the dealer for some "oh crap, my warranty is almost over" fixes.
List-
Outdoor speaker blown, real staticy.
Dead bolts don't line up with the holes.
Out door kit hen door strut pulled out from wall
Rear slide indoor trim loose
The drawer under the closet across from bathroom, the wood that the drawer slide is screwed to split.
The support from the "underpinning" to the frame has broken bolt, right beside sewer outlet. (I've repaired two of these myself already)

Prior stuff-
All jacks had to be welded
Toilet valve, I replaced
I had to tighten all of the sink drain pipes right under the sinks
One of the furnace hoses came off of the furnace. Had to go buy a torx bit set to keep in TT, didn't expect to have one or two panels with this type screws!

They put a 3 step step on for free.

That's about all I can think of right now for mine.

Has anyone mounted a bike rack to their premier? If so, where?

Thanks
