2014 Seneca

I am about to upgrade to the 37fs from a Greyhawk 31ss. Anyone want to share their seneca experiences with me? We are very excited. We are getting the mocha with midnight interior with every option including the stackable washer/dryer. Here are a few questions I have:
Does it hold the speed limit well while climbing moderate hills?
Is there enough room in the overhead bunk to sit upright? ( It was in our Greyhawk)
Whats the average range on a full tank of diesel?
Does it have the electric brakes ( like my f250 has-for trailers)
From what I can tell, it does not come with a grill, but is the gas plumbed so one can be installed?


more questions to follow- Grandkids just arrived!!

Welcome to the forum. You may want to post your questions in the Jayco motorhome forum for more exposure from MH owners.

I have a 2014 on order as well. Our dealer tells us they will have to install the trailer brake controller after delivery as the factory does not offer it as an option. Please advise if you hear anything different . tks

I got mine in May, the brake controller was dealer installed. But who knows, everything is fluid - they just came out with a different Kitchen cabinet arrangement.

ECGManager, Let's see if I can answer your questions.
Speed up hills/mountains - Most times I don't even know I'm going up a grade & I'm pulling a Roadmaster dolly with a Hyundai Elantra on it. I turn on the rear view camera to see if it's still back there.
Front bunk head room - I have the front entertainment center. I finally got the ladder and pulled out the front bunk. I'm 6' 2" and I cannot sit straight up on the bunk without my head hitting the ceiling. It's NOT a tight fit, I just have to slouch a little to be comfortable.
Fuel range - I drive about 500 miles then start looking for a fuel stop. Usually about a 45 -55 gal. fill up. I drive mostly tertiary roads, so my foot is not mashed against the floorboard!
