A couple weeks ago I phoned in an order. (After a few weeks of negotiating) My wife and I have been in a few of them. This will be out 3rd TC and our 8th RV. 4 MH 24, 34, 40 and 45 ft. 2 other TC and a 5th wheel. We always have a MH and a TC at the same time. Now it is a 5th wheel and TC. They get used for diff things. Didn't get a lot of options. I feel I can do a better job with the batts, inverter, and the TV's. Ordered, double couch, leather or what passes for leather on both. 3 slides are now standard, no choice, thats what I was told. micro/convection sealed burner top upgraded escape hatch 9k btu AC gas electric hot water swing out brackets, they should be standard. power awning. It is prob diff from what most people would order but we have ben camping traveling for a long time. I will add 4 or 6 6v batts and a 3k inverter. I also have a pair of honda 2 k gen. I will only carry 1. I don;t think they have started the build. I was told it would be in around the end of Jan. Looking forward to it. * This post was edited 01/15/17 03:04pm by zb39 * 2017 Host mammoth, sold 49 states, 41 National Parks, 7 Provinces 2019 2 door Rubicon 6 spd. 2019 Berkshire XLT 45B 2022 Host Cascade 2021 Ram 5500 Air ride |

Slight exaggeration, but they did show it on a SRW last time I looked. I have seen those pics. I have also seen people who do carry it on a SRW 3500. They have upgraded to 19.5 tires. Still I'm not sure I could do that. To each his own. |
