Purchased 2018 Greyhawk 29MVP

After many hours of considering, a few visits to the dealers showroom and even a tour of the factory a year ago, we have purchased the 29MVP. We drove one on Monday and I was very impressed with the ride and handling which helped us with our decision. We have a Rockwood fifth wheel now which has been great, but wanted to get away from the extra steps up and down on my aging knee's. We look forward to travel and adventure in our new camper. Next step finding a good tow vehicle.

Thank-you. We haven't picked up the unit yet but are looking forward traveling with it.

We have a 29 mv as well. let me say up front we love it, but it's been in the shop for warranty work for 30 days now. We had a complete failure of the electric panel while at Ft wilderness. Kudos to Disney they really stepped up to help us out. All of the neutrals burned up and also took out the converter. My suggestion is have someone check and tighten all connections in the 110v panel you will save yourself a huge headache. I just hope everything works properly when we get it back. Electrical problem can be never ending.

How have you like your new greyhawk 29mvp? I'm considering getting one myself. I was particularly concerned about the Back-up Camera. How do you like it, is it big enough, do you see a long distance when you're backing up?

We love the 29 MV, Just got it back and the panel was fixed but had to drive it back 150 mi to the repair facility because they failed to check all systems. after a 3hr drive it took them 10 minutes to hook up the power control system. To answer your question on the back up camera it works fine. That said it shows only about 10 ft behind the RV so you should still need a spotter when backing in a spot. It can be adjusted to pitch up and increase the depth of view. There are some posts on the forum on how to do it.

Glad you got everything fixed! In regards to The Back-up Camera, do you have the camera that situated in the back up light? If so I thought that type of camera was not adjustable.

Technically it's not, but you can shim the bottom of the light to move the camera up. Remember to re-caulk. the light.
