Thanks. Which hitch do you use and how do you like it?

So exciting! Nice progress pics.

I was in that assembly facility last May. They build the Alpine, Avalanche and Laredo Mid Profile in that building. Per industry standards it is a low output assembly building. About half the output of the Montana assembly line. I really think this equates to a better built unit. We also toured the Cougar assembly line. A world of difference in the construction materials, especially the framing.

That’s good news. We are really anxious for it to arrive.

Those are great pics keep us posted on how you and your new trailer are doing.

[Alpine]

Wow! You gotta be on pins and needles with excitement! Thanks for sharing the photos. Looking forward to hearing of your first journey! We have bounced our Alpine up and down the highways and byways to the tune of around 80,000 miles (fulltime) and it is still tight!

[Tbos]

We pick it up tomorrow. Here are some pictures the dealer sent today. Excited doesn’t come close to how we feel at this point. 161891619016191

Very awesome! Looks huge!

[sourdough]

That's a beautiful trailer Tom. I figure I would already be in the parking lot ready to sleep over....or, sleep in the unit!!! I know you are excited and hope pick up day goes perfectly.

Congrats. They build Grand Design Reflections in that facility too?

That’s the dealer. General RV in Ashland Va. it was finished at Keystone on the Thursday after I initially posted. It took another week for it to make it to the dealer. General recently bought this facility. It has 22 bays now and they are adding another 28.

They may sell the Alpines & Grand Designs at the same dealer, but fairly certain the Alpine built by Keystone owned by Thor & Grand Design Reflections/Solitudes now owned by Winnebago don't share any assembly facilities.

How has your experience with General RV in Ashland been? I live close to that dealer.

[Alpine]

Whoa! Now that is one beautiful Fifthwheel....congratulation Tom!

[ctbruce]

Great looking unit, Tom! Excited wouldn't even come close to describing the feelings.

I agree!!!

[Hey Louie]

Congratulations. That's exciting stuff!!. About how long did it take to get your new Alpine once you ordered it? We ordered a 3700 back on March 2nd. We are getting very anxious. Good luck with your new 5er.

[Tbos]

We ordered the unit Feb 10 and we were able to pick it up yesterday. The longest part was getting the hitch installed in my truck. The dealer General RV in Ashland VA has been great. Here’s a picture as we are getting ready to leave the dealer. 16214

Very exciting! Enjoy!

Looks great!

Wow nice looking combo. I too like the new lettering looks clean. Hope you are enjoying your new trailer. We are finally picking up our 17 3500 rl this weekend was a long winter had to wait for the snow to clear

[Tbos]

On a side note, the tank pull handle label gremlin hit 2 of my handles. Black and grey 1 were switched. Glad I use a clear extension on my hose.

Beautiful Rig!

How did you get photos, through company rep?

[RV Driver Ed]

Cool, what did it take from time of order to dealer. I ordered my 3650RL last Tuesday?

I met the company area rep at the show and kept in touch with him even before the build started. When our salesman received word it was being built I had him ask for pictures.

Ordered Feb 9, delivered April 28th.

OK thanks, I too have met with Company Rep for New Jersey at a show and I have his contact information getting some questions answered, so thanks for the info I know what to do.

We are really enjoying ours so far. Hope all goes well for you too.

[RV Driver Ed]

Thank you and enjoy many great years of camping in your unit as well!

If it is not too much trouble, could you tell me the measurement of 3 seat rear couch, width and open sleeping area?

I’ll try to remember to measure it. I know we were able to fit a set of queen sheets on it.

[RV Driver Ed]

Thanks, also another question, Does your new unit have an exterior propane hook up for a grill? (quick connect)

I have not found an exterior propane hook up for a grill. It might be hiding somewhere but I don’t think it has one.

[Tbos]

I finally measured the fold out bed/couch. It is 68” x 64”. The target queen sheet fits but is a little big for it.

[RV Driver Ed]

Thanks for the measurements, I will have to figure out how to make the sheet fit a little better so I 6 foot person could fit better on the bed.
