welcome to our world.
It might be a good idea that after you have been thoroughly walked thru the camper and tried all the appliances and lights and really pay attention during the "how to dump the tanks" part of it. and they've answered all of your questions to not be in a hurry to leave the area. If you spend the 1st nite in the area and any problems or questions come up they can help you with it.
Have a nice trip and enjoy your new rig .
Remember if there are no pictures it didn't happen.
Happy traveling and camping.

This is a good idea. When we picked up our new EC we were able to spend the night on the dealer's lot. First thing I did was fill ALL the tanks with h20 and let them sit overnight. Check the next day for any leaks-look in the cabinets, under sinks, basement,EVERYWHERE.
DW found a small drip under kitchen sink that they fixed (this is the kind of thing that could lead to a bigger problem if not noticed...).
Use all the appliances on 110, 12V,and propane.
We also found a 12v light bulb on the vent hood that was out.
Use the shower, toilet...EVERYTHING.
And again, be sure to look EVERYWHERE for leaks (all outside compartments, etc)the next day.
Look up on the roof; does everything look sealed?
Roll out the awning.
You get the idea!
It's easier to have them fix anything while there and if you haven't left the lot there is no doubt they are responsible.
Oh yeah...congrats...you will have fun with your new TC!
