Ok, we did not take delivery on the Seneca yesterday due to some punch list items we came up with during our walk-through. Here's what I found out:
-- It is NOT a sealed underbelly, however, they said the tanks are "inside" and that as long s our furnace is running in the coach while driving, it should not freeze up. There are no tank heaters, per se, but there is some sort of pipe that runs through them that is heated by the furnace. And there is spray foam insulation under the carriage where the tanks are located.
-- We are very happy with our dealer thus far. They have gone out of their way to "welcome" us "into their family." Nice touch.
-- I will definitely miss our nimble little Leisure Travel Van. The high-end finishes in the Unity trollop the Jayco in the price range of the Seneca, but we are looking forward to the extra room, pleasant showers, and real livability.
-- When I asked about the necessity of a "snatch strap," the saleslady had never heard of anything like that, which was obvious by her immediate embarrassment at the sound of the phrase and it's more filthier connotations. This sent everyone in the room into a 15-20 minute giggle fit. Dirty bunch, that group! :)
All in all, it was a good experience. I'm glad that they are willing to learn a little more about it (so they can teach us) before we drive it off the lot. Yay!!! So excited!
DH is still trying to figure out how to get around Denver, rather than go through ... any ideas?
