Welcome to the forum which is a great place to get advice on the Thor Products. Sorry to hear of your Head-on but the most important thing is you are all right I hope. You can always find another Rv but ya can't replace yourself or the bride as well as other family members and even the furry ones.
I was sorry to read you had a problem with CO and I must say you folks aren't alone on that issue as I had my issues with one in Kingston to the point I was about to sign and I decided CW and me would not be a good mix. We went up to Albany and were actually pleased. Fantastic dealership, sales staff and saved a lot. We purchased a RUV Thor Axis 2018 in November. We live in the Hudson Valley so Albany was just a nice 137 mile ride up the Thruway about a tad bit less than a 2hour trip. It works for us!
We have not put much miles on the unit due to family illnesses ( elderly parents) as well as my DAV issues from the Rice War! What is funny is we have the unit sitting in the yard haven't even slept in it and right across the road is our Town Campgrounds called Korn's Campgrounds. Now that is stupid funny. One would think we'd pull in there for a couple test runs on set up and take down as well as a bit of practice of backing into a slot , pulling out and then the challenge of pulling into and parking the unit in our yard. Our yard...God save the queen on that one.
So enjoy the unit have fun and rive safe but enjoy your ride! All the best! K9Piper
Thanks for the information with respect to the Albany location ! We found the Syracuse CW not competent to be in charge of a free picnic lunch let along a $70,000 RUV ! (At least from the service and parts end of their operation)
Sounds like the Korns trip could work well for a maiden voyage, if you forgot something, you wouldn't be put out too far ! I am chomping at the bit to get out of here now, but, we have our income taxes and other business to take care of. Yesterday was start loading some of our needed items in the new Gemini and test the grille day.... Back to the drawing board on the grille.
The untimely demise of our Class A Winni was tragic with the other two occupants of the other car deceased ! Horrifying at best.... Me going one way them the other, they were struck from behind catapulting them into the grille of the winni. Sad story ! The 13,000 lbs of rig saved my life, broke my back among other things, but, saved my life !

Just going on 4 months after missing out on the fall RV trips we make annually, we are ready to get out of this weather. The last week barely breaking 10 F and lake effect snow nightly has been killing me while trying to keep up with snow removal and fire wood... Down to the final punch list of things to do, so, the end is in sight. Hoping the Gemini works out as we have not had water in it yet, too cold.
