What would you do?

I am trying to decide if I should allow the dealer to replace my vinyl floor. My concern is how they will do this. They say they will need to run shoe molding all around to hold the floor in place since they can't put it under the cabinets. Not only am I concerned that now we are adding more weight,...

New 2008 floorplans

Just to let everyone know, the cabinet is still over the dinette if you don't get the panoramic window. I saw mine today (31EKLE) and was glad to see the cabinet. The window is a little larger than before, but only by a small amount. The DVD is still Concertone, they say it is a different model. Hop...

Well we didn't get our 31RKLE Cardinal today. As soon as they opened the door I saw they didn't put in the right floor. We ordered the wood plank and got the regular linoleum. The dealer said they can fix it, but I'm not sure I want them to do it. Their work is never as good as from the factory. Als...

King size bed buckles

We went to get our new 31rkle today, long story short we didn't pick it up. But we did notice when the bedroom slide comes in the bed hits the bath cabinet and buckles. Has anyone else had this problem or is it only with the new models?

I guess if you see something like this and just can't get him to pull over you could call 911. The state police will get his attention.

Lucky for him you were there and noticed the problem. This could have been a major disaster.

I find the TL very helpful when looking for a campground on the route. I normally use it during my planning stage, but I will use it on the trip if our route changes or my first choice is booked. I also find it helpful to zoom in and get street names to locate it on my Garmin. Finding campgrounds in...

New '08 Cardinal

Has anyone taken delivery on an '08 that was ordered after 27 November?
That is the date that all the new changes were supposed to take place.

We haven't received our LE unit but looking at the floor plans on the FR website for '08 units built post 27 Nov. it indicates that there are no cabinets over the dinette table and chairs. We believe they were removed because of a potential to hit ones head. The brochures only show plans with the ta...
