Yep, we're going to Deer Springs RV Park! Coolest RV park in the Smoky Mountains!Got the first trip planned yet?
Yes, 600hp. Upgrades? Well, to be honest, I'm not sure, lol. The standard features list seems to have more stuff on it than all of my other MH's combined. Ha! But under the options list there are things I would have thought would have been standard. But among other things, these are listed:Congrats, gorgeous.
That's got the 600HP in it doesn't it.... What's the upgrades like on it?
Very similar layout to my 15 DS 4312 but instead of bunkroom/bathroom split in the room you get enough room for a king and that giant shower...
The OG owner of mine did very similar options including all electric and the 8 AGM batteries too, it’s great to have no propane on board (though having a 2015 I know need to replace them all) We were able to take ferries and tunnels we otherwise wouldn’t have been able to, plus who wants to deal with propane if you don’t have to.Yes, 600hp.

To the previous owners credit, he is fixing everything that the inspection turned up. I mean, I would have expected him to fix the big things, but he's even taking care of the little things. He seems like a pretty stand up guy.
- Tyron belts on front tires
- RV Sanicon System
- Water Hose Reel
- Power passthrough storage tray

- Probably not an option, not it the manner in which you meant by options, but it comes with a 3-year extended warranty.

It's a very nice motor home, much nicer than I need, that's for sure. But Trish seems to have taken a liking to it, so there you go!![]()
I've never had one, so this will be something new. But I believe there will be a lot of first's for me with this coach. It's clearly a step up from anything I've had before. Almost a bit intermediating.If the RV Sanicon system is the same thing I have, which is basically a macerator on the sewer out, I don’t really get the point but I can’t wait to get someone else’s opinion using it, I just feel like it makes the dump process slow but having owned nothing else I could be wrong, and adds something to break to the already existing giant list our RVs are.
Good, I'll come visit post that and you can teach me about my coachI've never had one, so this will be something new. But I believe there will be a lot of first's for me with this coach. It's clearly a step up from anything I've had before. Almost a bit intermediating.
I've scheduled 4-hours of education with the folks at Steinbring and I hope that will give me a leg-up on the multiple systems on this coach. If it's not enough, I'll hang out for another day or so.
I know there will be a lot to learn, but I'm a good student, and I love a challenge!
