After waiting what seemed like an eternity (9 weeks) I took delivery yesterday on my 4000. I ordered it in January, they built it in February, then the weather refused to cooperate. My wife kept making fun of me at the dealership, apparently I was pretty excited. We did the PDI walk through, and everything was nearly perfect.
The only issues I discovered were the wrong size mattress and minor collision damage from the transport driver. The dealership took care of the mattress issue, and gave me a due bill for the collision damage. Luckily it is isolated to a trip piece on the ODS rear corner. There are some faint scratches on the decals, but they are only noticeable when pointed out. It looks like the driver backed into something, or swung too wide on a right hand turn. Luckily the fiberglass is fine.
I can't wait to get home from work today and go play with my new toy. I wasn't able to spend any time with the coach last night after parking it. The curvy driveway and parking pad don't make for an easy time in the best of conditions, and arriving well after dark made it even more fun. Luckily there are a ton of outside lights on the Cyclone, so I fired them up and parked with out too many issues. I had to cut one tree down that got in the way, but it was a small one.
It feels great to officially be an owner. I've been drooling over this particular unit for almost a year now. I've already got a bunch of things waiting to get installed. Progressive EMS, Steady Fast stabilizers, two TVs and mounts... Not to mention loading it all up with everything from our old trailer.
Here are some shots I took at the dealership. I'll take more photos when I get home.
