Good news about the new 3750FL
We just received confirmation this morning that the rig is coming off of the line tomorrow and will be scheduled for transport by the end of the week. As some know it takes a day or two to arrange transport since it is delayed by the new individual weighing of the rig as well as Keystone-Montana's inspection of the unit. We are being told that the new rig should arrive at the dealer by the end of next week. We are going camping this weekend with Bill-N-Donna for the farewell trip in the 3400RL. I still have to do some work to it before the trade occurs, namely, removal of the electrical upgrades, replace the original OEM kitchen faucet (glad I kept it!!), remove some decals I placed on the back, remove the custom coax connections and booster I had installed, empty the entire rig of our contents (we cannot just move everything into the new rig since they both will be at the dealer to allow for the transfer of the washer and dryer to the new rig). Now I have to make sure that the 614's will be in hand and mounted but it looks like a maiden voyage in Mid-October may well be in the works!! The dealer also has some prep to do installing the satellite system, swapping propane tanks, installing gas struts on the storage door beneath the bedroom slide, and installing the pin-box level. We are truly blessed and look forward to the new adventures that await us with the new rig. An enormous debt of gratitude goes to Keystone-Montana as well as SummitRV in Ashland, KY for the fantastic job both of them have done throughout the purchase process!!

Glad to hear everything is working out. It will be even more difficult camping this weekend knowing it’s so close to being here. Hang in there; it’ll be here before you know it.

Bingo,
We went on the factory tour yesterday and I saw your new trailer. I just want you to know that you can start the scavenger hunt when you take delivery.

Jim,
You and Rosetta need to get your stories straight, she said that the rig was missed, you said that it was there. Let me think, who should I believe????

It wasn't in the factory, it was in the storage lot next door. I went looking for it.

Steve,
The request was for a rally-wide Pre-Delivery "Inspection", not a Pre-Delivery "Insertion". I am not sure what caused the confusion, but I have a hunch there was a mis-understanding initiated by the "water balloon" launching trajectory calculation engineers brigade that are in attendance at the rally?????? Geeeezz, now I have to let the cat live in the rig for a while I guess??

I would not be worried in the least then Mike, all of the forum DW's that we have had the pleasure of meeting would no doubt take better care of the rig than I would myself!! The only worrisome part would be the hard turns when parking with the Marathon tires!!!
