You need to check the date codes on the tires and determine what year they were manufactured.

Make sure you test drive it over various road conditions. If it's on the R4R chassis, they're known for a very rough ride. Don't think that just because it has air suspension it will ride nicely. They typically ride very harsh. As mentioned above, make sure you check that the trailing arms have been upgraded also. The replacement arms should look like this. http://sourcerv.com/trailing_arm

Yes, you will need to verify that the new design rear trailing arms have been installed or deduct for that to be done:

Congrats on your new coach! I looked at a 2004 Neptune DP back in 2004 and liked that coach!
