I did read the caution next to the drivers seat and yes it is a basic CYA statement from THOR.

I am of the old school , I think if you plunk down your cash for a vehicle that stickers in excess of a $100,000, you should be able to get in it and drive it, not wrestle with it, at least for a few thousand miles.
Sorry again for the rant.

Good point. My ACE had 1000 miles on it when I picked it up brand new. Drove it empty from Alabama to New Orleans then home to Northeast Ohio where I had the alignment checked after complaining to Thor. The tech that did the alignment said, "Dude, you're lucky to be alive."
