Our first outing in the new 3750 FL was a huge success. We traveled to Murfreesboro Tennessee for 7 days (900 mile round trip)
The tow there and back was a pleasure. The Ram 3500 handled the additional weight and the hills with no problem. The additional Firestone air bags whether needed or not were filled to 30 psi. I may have to experiment with the pressure a bit but this seemed like a good starting point.
Set up is a snap, the 6 point leveling system took all of the guesswork out of the leveling procedure.
We did come up with a list of things that we absolutely loved as well as a list of items that could be improved on at the factory.
Pros:
The interior living space is spacious. We absolutely love the front living area. Plenty of room in both the bathroom and bedroom as well.
Storage space is plentiful both inside and out.
Setup is a snap. After arriving at the site, we were leveled up, had all of the outside gear out and watching satellite tv in less than 15 minutes.
The additional 4th step allows access inside more safely.
The refrigerator is huge. There is plenty of space for just about anything you want to put inside.
Cons:
The biggest problem we encountered was accessing the upper cabinets inside. A tall stepstool is a must if one is vertically challenged.
The latch for the sanitary hose storage door is made of plastic and looked like it would be just a matter of time before the plastic latch would fail. This was immediately replaced with a steel latch assembly.
The mirror on the bathroom cabinet is a little on the high side. This should be lowered to cover the lower two storage shelves as well.(future mod)
The ducting vents in the floor should have screens installed to prevent stuff from falling inside the vents. Screens will be installed today. I installed screens on one of my other RV's and this worked out well.
The outside entertainment system is sweet but the Jensen radio is a joke in my opinion. The volume when using the auxiliary port for the MP3 is very weak even when turned up at full volume. I normally use a Bose radio outside so I may just be spoiled.
One other thing I don't understand is why the Mfg. does not key both entrance doors the same. We are looking into having the rear door keyed the same as the front door.
All and all, it's a pretty sweet unit. I will address all of the minor issues we have to make it suit our needs 100%.
Yesterday was spent cleaning up the RV and preparing it for our next outing. We will leave home on Wednesday for another 7 day trip. We will be taking our Grand daughter with us on this trip and she is so excited. That's what it is all about.
