We're new to the MOC and looking to purchase a 3820FK. Any suggestions and feedback that would help us is certainly appreciated.

Jamesqf>: I took two years and many RV shows to settle in on this Unit of 3820FK. The big attraction is the Front Kitchen, big window and having a 3rd room or an isolated section away from the TV and Living room area. It also functioned as a sleeping area for a toddler, while the parents were on the sofa pull outs. We are not intended Full Timers and the brief seasonal use provided additional insight to the layout. Two things we went after; The Legacy package and an installed generator. The Legacy package was well worth it for the following reasons. It has 6 basic upgrades; suspension, Rear cap, Electronic Control, bicycle hitch, cabinets and shades. Three basic downsides to the unit; it lacks a large storage space for full timing and the generator takes up the front compartment, the king size bed is hard to manage and renders the closet/laundry area difficult to use and I find the buffet to be uncomfortable in design and table use. The table is the only area to put a laptop out or work on projects. On ending on a positive note, I feel I got a quality product with minimum issues and I would compare the value as getting a Lexus vehicle at the Toyota flagship vehicle range. I can't say the cost and installation of the Oman generator were worth an additional $10K. I find the 40 foot unit and large truck a real challenge to get into average locations we took for granted when in a smaller motorhome.

Thanks Dusters. Sorry for being away as I got lost in the MOC forum but finally found my way back. All the posting relative to the 3820FK are extremely helpful. While searching on RVTraders.com I did noticed an abundant of 3820FKs for sale. Being a new model can't help but wonder why so many used 3820FK are on the market. Sure there're various reasons for this but would love to hear all the pros and cons why these are on the market so soon after being manufactured.
