Dan, thanks for checking the light. We don't have the led, so must be a different model.
We had been thinking about moving West in four or five years and then looking into an RV, but we stopped at an RV show here in January and that sparked our interest. Actually, the one we looked at was the 211 model. We started looking at some used class c's for a starter unit, but didn't care for them. Ended up at the dealers one afternoon and saw the 251 model and it snowballed from there. Our 13 yr. old grandson lives with us, plus our dog, so the size seemed adequate. The drivability was also impressive.
Did we expect problems? Sure, but not to the extent of it being tied up for repair 6 wks. out of the three months we've had it. Seems a bit excessive to me for a new unit. Sometimes it may sound like a broken record, but these posts may help inform someone else of potential problems. I know I would've thought twice.
For now we'll have to put up with the trips to the dealer and like you, see what happens before the warranty is up.
