Hey, everybody. We picked up our Free Spirit SS a month ago. Less than 400 miles on it so far and no camping! Just to busy. Next two weekends have trips planned though. I have been able to go through everything pretty while it is parked in its shop. 12' x 36' built just for it. I am spoiled.
Everything works great and I am very impressed with the quality, fit and finish. Only a couple of minor issues that the dealer had spotted before we picked it up and is working with factory on, such as the spare tire carrier drops too low to be level to use as a table.
Answers to questions on the sofa/bed. There is about six-eight inches of room between the end of the bed and the sliding door. You can slide around it OK but just need to move slow. The power sofa works good but I would say not essential since it is a light sofa and easy to access. But still, just the same, is kind of nice to just hit a switch. It is plenty wide enough for two people.
So far I see the back storage as a place where all the hardware, hoses, tools, etc will go plus our inflatable boat, oars and small folding chairs. Not big enough for even a small gas grill so that will have to travel in the shower and get swapped out with the front seat area when parked.
The bath is so wonderful and we haven't even used it yet!.
One of the things that sold us on this unit was the dealer, and particularly the salesman, we were lucky enough to connect with. They are only 180 miles from us which in Montana is good. Chad at Creston RV is wonderful. He is the best salesman I have met in my life when it comes to putting you at ease and making you feel comfortable with a purchase. He is half the reason we bought this year. He has bought us two nights camping near the dealership Memorial Day weekend and he is going to help us set up for our third, yes third walk through with him, and then will return each morning to go over any questions.
What service!
I will provide a report in a few weeks after we have some nights both dry camping and in an RV park. Later, folks.
