We're really doing this!
Just made the call... I think we're really doing this.
We found a 2015 37TS at a dealer nearby, took it for a test drive, and LOVE the storage, floorplan and drive-ability... so it looks like we're really doing this and are going to make the purchase.
Any tips for things to look for on our PDI?
Engine looked clean. 30k miles on a ~3 year old chassis. <60 hours on the genny. No major dings, slam doors all functional, roof looked very clean, one cabinet door needed fixing (they made a note), and the seal around the door was flapping in the breeze (also noted)... didn't do much poking around today other than that.
We'll be trading in our 7-year old 34' fifth wheel and 2008 F350 truck... so not new to the RV experience, but we are new to the motorhome world...
Love reading and learning from all the great experience here on the forum! Glad to be joining the group!!
-Tina & Dave
+ Denna, the co-pilot (english mastiff)

We're still working through financing paperwork, but we put our $5k down, so... YES! We Did it! We don't get to bring the Seneca home until the 23rd, so it doesn't really feel real, yet... I did go ahead and get us reservations at a campsite for the 25th, just an hour from home, so we can test everything out.
The dealer gives us a 60 day warranty... so figure we should get out there quick to make sure everything's working 100%.
