wrong motorhome

hello, we just purchased our first class c motorhome..out purchase agreement and title work saids its a 2019. but the truck, chassic, and inside the motorhome had a 2018 owners manual. so we got to looking, and even the windows, screen, door, microwave ect said it is a 2018. we are confused as did they sell us a 2019 when actually it is a 2018. company we bought it from is closed for the week-end. has anyone ever had this happen before. thank you so much. snow0700

    "Forum posting help" is about as clear as they can make it.
    Some things you just have to live with.

    There is a catch 22 with that too. It's common knowledge that the chassis will probably be a year older than the RV house. Let's say your RV is 2018 and the chassis is 2017.

    When you give your VIN to the insurance company, they only value the RV and it's contents as a 2017. So if you have paid for full replacement insurance, and it's totaled, they save a few thousand that way and you get the value of a 2017. I believe...and every insurance policy I've bought for my RVs over the years have shown the year older age rather than the house age. I checked with them 14 years ago about it but don't remember all they said...other then they weren't going to change it.

    The chassis is a 2018 but the RV build is a 2019...happen all the time. No worries. Enjoy your RV and have fun!
