Nice!!! Congratulations!!!

I know this is not your first rodeo but take all the time you need with the PDI and don't sign anything until you are 100% happy with the PDI. On the RV forum that I read, hard to believe the number of people that get home with their new RV and discover significant issues that could have been discovered during the PDI. Be prepared to come back and sign papers, hand over cash, etc if the unit is not 100% acceptable. Once the dealer has your money, not all RV dealers see you as a priority.

I'll be counting "cardinals". Still a little apprehensive hooking on to something so big/heavy. I know it will be fine, just something different. Probably get home by noon, load her up with our stuff, and headed to Holland State Park for 3 weeks..... Nothing like coming down to the wire. Luckily the park is 30 minutes from home, and 45 from the dealer. Full hookup....ahhhhh

Here are a couple links to some photos:

Looks like a perfect break in spot Dave. That trailer won't be a struggle for your truck. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Thanks Bruce. I will. Dealer has been great. I dont expect any problems that cannot be worked out.
