First trip bust
Well our first trip of the year is a bust. As we were just about to depart the kitchen slide bound up on the retract and now won't come in. It is now at Campingworld. Hopefully they can figure it out ...

I feel like we have joint custody with Campingworld since it's lived there half the time since we got it.
This may be slightly off-topic, but I've read countless comments on here that basically say the same thing. Whether its Camping World or some other dealer, it seems like many (if not most) new units spend a lot of time back at the dealer for warranty repairs. My parents have a rig that's less than a year old, and its already been back to CW for a converter replacement (which took well over a month) and back again for a radio replacement (which took 2 hours). We've only ever owned used campers, but these situations make me wonder if buying a 3-5 year old rig might very well be a better decision. This way, the previous owner will have gotten all these little annoyances worked out.
Just kinda one of those random thoughts that pop into my head.
Don't know if this is always the case, hasn't been ours.. And remember that used unit you have was new at one time and may have had issues and they've been fixed...Every TT/5er we've owned since 1999 was purchased new...and all spent very little time at the dealer and most of that was in adding upgrades...and now the new Jayco since last August and other than a few nickel dime issues, our new units have spent very little time back at the dealer..Guess we've been fortunate?
