Like TexasTraveler, I think I should have been paid for the PDI. We didn’t buy our 5er at CW, but at another dealer. When it came time for the walk, It was obvious the guy knew nothing about campers. He was showing us, this is the stove and refrigerator is here. This is the vent fan and you turn it on with this switch. DUH!
He couldn’t turn on the TV or radio, but”they work”.
When we were walking around the outside, he showed us the central station where the water and electric hooks up. This little plug at the bottom, you can unscrew it if it gets flooded, to let the water drain.
He showed us where to hook up the black tank drain, then began to walk down the length of the trailer saying the grey tank drain should be here somewhere.
We wasn’t sure whether to feel sorry or laugh at him.
The PDI only lasted for about 15 minutes. I had to ask about hooking and unhooking to the truck. It’s my first 5er.
