Old propane tanks on new RVs

If the OP had gone straight to fill the tank, and found them nearly out of date he might convince the dealer to look into maybe a employee wanted to make pocket money.

I doubt most people even think to look at the expiration date on their cylinders when getting them filled. and I know personally I have never had the guy tell me that I only had a yer or so left before expiration.

What i have found most often when refilling tanks is if the tank is clean and not rusty the guy never even looks the the date and just fills it.
