From what I can tell the nose cap was changed in 2018 and they added LED lights to it. As for the fresh tank, there is a "C" channel brace that is bolted to the frame under it and over the now enclosed under belly. I don't know if it's the same on the 2017, they didn't show the underbelly, and the video I mentioned was changes from 2016 to 2017.
I appreciate the update. You know this stuff better than me... does that c channel bracing resolve the problem or would you be adding additional support?
Look forward to your thoughts after you check one out on the weekend.
I believe it was a "factory fix" to the sagging issue, from what it looks like. As for me knowing more...this is just the stuff I could find on the interwebs, although I've been RVing for 40 years I've never owned a TT. Another interesting tid-bit is the frontal area has never been calculated by Coachmen, but they stated 56sq' if it was flat...which it's not. So I would say with the curve is has to be under 50sq'.
