Congratulations on your new purchase of an Axis 24.1. I have a new one coming in February or March and have a couple of questions about your new MH:

Some have wondered if the supplier backlogs that are the result of Covid and the high demand for new RVs have resulted in any change in components. Are you aware of any in your MH?

Yours has the new Ford V8. On the F53 based MHs (the Axis 24.1 uses the E350 chassis) the suspension is also upgraded. Have you noticed any handling problems. I realize that you have nothing to compare your new Axis with.

I viewed the interesting video walkthrough last night- and noticed the electronic switch, light, tank level control module above the sink. Older Axis didn't have that. How do you like it. I am old school and prefer switches that actually switch current to the device. This control module sends signals to solid state control modules instead of switches. When it works, it works, but I am concerned about electronic failures.

It does make wiring more straightforward. The current carrying circuit goes straight to the device rather than having to loop first to a remote switch and a small electronic signal is sent from the control module to that circuit.

But it is what it is.
