Check list for a new Lance Camper
I just purchased a new 2015 Lance 855S and would like to know if anyone can send me or post a good check list to do BEFORE I accept the delivery.

1. Remove all the drawers and check that the screws holding the framing for said drawers are long enough so the drawers won't suddenly fall.
2. Make sure the wiring for the plug into your truck actually works so camper will charge while you drive down the road.
3. I think they now use molded countertops, but if not, check all the glued on edging.
4. Hook up satellite and cable TV to make sure wiring works. Neither of my connections worked and had to be rewired.
5. Check the brackets and screws on dinette table (again they may have upgraded this feature)
6. Check the bolts on the a/c. They drilled in the wrong place on the cover, drilled right next to it and left the space open for water to get in and rusted bolts.
7. Have batteries checked - they installed an old one in mine.
8. Try the remote and slide several times. They eventually replaced my remote.
9. Put a CD in the stereo and make sure it plays all the way through.
10. Ask about the drain on the A/C. In high humidity, mine drips inside the camper and others have said the same thing.
Once you take delivery, enjoy!!
