You got to make sure everything works BEFORE YOU PAY.

When you get there the fridge should be on and cold. Do not take "OH we just plugged it in for an answer" If the fridge is broke that could be a $1000 or more item.
Water tank should have water in it and hot water heater should be made to come on and produce hot water.
Roof need to be checked by you for rips, tears etc. DO NOT TRUST THE DEALER.
Awning needs to be unfurled and checked and then put way.
Other items need to be checked but I cannot find the online checklist perhaps someone will post it.
I believe I have heard of people referencing the checklist, so I will try to locate that. But, I have an appointment this Friday for my "orientation" or whatever you want to call it. They are supposed to go over everything with me then. But I do agree, that I should probably make it my own responsibility to check everything over beforehand before I give them the check. They currently only have a $200 deposit, I have the check still.
