Looks good. What dealer did you buy it from?

Great looking rig. You even have the right TV for that heavy unit.

We bought from Chesapeake Rv solutions. We ordered it in May. The salesman was great(Ben). We told him we were going to fulltime an he helped us pick out the best options an delete the ones we didn't need.

Nice Robbie and Sandy. You'll have to join us for the NC rally and show this unit
Jim I have looked at that we just got back from Sturgis since we both still work I am not sure we can get the time. Next year will be different we will both be retired and have time.

The Dealer/Owner he was great. Made sure I was where I wanted it and OK before he left. Can't say enough good thing about them.

The only thing the dealer told we was to make sure I ran the Genny for at least one hour a month because some dealer will look at the sell date and if you don't have at least 1 hour of run time for each month they might not honor it.

You don't need an hour.
But I would recommend adding StaBil stabilizer to the fuel and if you are not absolutley sure you have ethanol free fuel, use the ValvTec brand of stabilizer and ethanol treatment.
Then once a month with the stabilizer in the tank:
Start, warm up for 5 minutes - no load
Turn everything on for 20 minutes (AC's, water heater maybe a portable heater)
Turn off everything for and run for 5 minutes
Shutdown
Don't leave the fuel in there forever. When done camping for the season I make sure the tanks are full with fuel and stabilizer and then in the spring I start using that fuel for all the lawn equipment. First trip out gets fresh fuel.
Last year that 25 gallons in the Cyclone kept our portable generator running during Sandy for the first week that no gas stations were open.

Thanks we have been in it for a couple of nights and really like it. Took us two days to move out of the motorhome and find everything a new home. The dealer found a couple of drain issues behind the stowage wall and fixed them they did a great prep on the rig.

Walk thru guy told me the same thing, but only to exercise it and keep varnish from building on the internals. Nothing mentioned about warranty except to register all the stuff we have.
