I advise caution when reaching around underneath to connect your sewer hose. I found out the hard way Thor used razor sharp wood screws to attach the sewer ring and shredded up my hands while preparing to dump.
I recommend carrying 2-3 cheap lightweight 5x7 rugs to lay in front of your door at campsites to cut down on dirt being tracked into your unit while camping. These store nicely in either of the pass-through storage compartments.
I had trouble properly staying within the lanes while driving until I picked up a tip. Park your unit next to a straight curb (easy enough to do using to side mirror to gauge your distance). Then place a sticker on the windshield where the curb extends in your sightline to establish where the right side of your RV is oriented. Now, when I drive I can easily spot where the right edge of my unit is within the lane from the corner of my eye without turning to look at my right side mirror. For me, the sticker goes about the middle of the left windshield wiper, but you'll need additional markers for each driver.

No need to take the RV to the dealer to find out if the chassis is an E-450. Just look at your VIN . If the fourth digit is a 4, it's the newer E-450 chassis. I suppose a 3 would indicate the E-350 chassis. It's nice to have the 14,500 max weight vs. the 12,500 weight on the E-350. Nick from Soddy Daisy, TN ( Chattanooga area ). New 24.1 owner in Dec 2015.
