Thor Forums

I can only speak from personal experience. I have 18 years experience with another class A coach (188,000 miles), so I am not new at this. My dealer, MHSRV, presented me with a two page, 205 item dealer prep checklist listing the things they had checked and corrected. Both the water and propane systems needed some work. At the factory, I learned that Thor does not check these systems because of winterizing the coach for delivery and explosion potential in the factory where the inspection stations are located (they are leak checked with air). MHSRV strongly suggested we spend 24 hours in our new coach before we left the dealership which we did. This stay did not involve dumping or city pressure water on the coach. At the morning debrief with the salesman and maintenance tech who spent two hours familiarizing us with the coach the day before, I requested we go dump and pressurize the water system. The maintenance tech road with us to the dump station and watched me exercise everything. I asked if we could spend another night in the delivery area as I wanted to get an early start home (635 miles) which was granted. Everything has worked as it should on the coach for the 19 months years (176 nights), we have owned the coach.
