almost a new 40U journey

I have been trying to trade M/Hs for 3 years. I thought I wanted a diesel.
It came down to tiffin and winne. We even AGREED on a trade price between my voyage and the 40u journey. I was not impressed with the test drive, to much noise and rattle above and back of the driver seat, the mirror shook to much. Just reminded me of what I already have only larger. At MSRP of $290K I expected to much, I guess
All the controls, heating, tv and such have left me in the dark
the 6 batteries for house are only accesable from underneath the middle of the chassis. I could not even crawl under and look at them
Looking in the first compartment just in front of the passenger side dully was a water holding tank and underneath was stuck a piece of styrofoam for a brace, I guess was not cut to fit jut stuck in there. Gave me the impression someone said "hell this is good enough"
The wood trim over the refrigerator, one end was loose and hanging down
so I turned it down and went to North Trail and looked at tiffin
I joined the tiffin owner network to learned about tiffin and I learned to much and ruled tiffin OUT. I had been to Red Bay in Sept and It was a mad house at the repair shop a lot of people waiting for repairs, wet bays, roofs sidewalls
Next I looked at Nemar gas and would have traded for a 3940 model except my brother-in-law called and wanted to sell his 2004 DP and I bought it. The price was right and I know every moved it has made, I now own two M/Hs lone for sale. ADIOUS
