Anyone know what Option PKG 7H030 contains?
It's a $2,674 option on the 3401 we pick up Monday. Would be nice to know what it contains before we take delivery. . . TIA

Heat pump is a great feature in outside temps over 40 degrees, but only if plugged in or running generator. Use the RV park's electricity for your heat rather than burning your propane. Nice even heat without cycling on and off so much.

Thanks much. Awesome link! Yep, I think we'll use the heat pumps quite a bit.

It also includes 5.5KW generator vs 4KW, 50 vs 30 amp electric service, and power mgmt which drops loads when you are trying to run too many appliances when on a 30 amp hook up. These are all very useful when not hooked up to 50amps.

More good info. I didn't know about the power management and thats very cool. We encounter a fair amount of mid 30s on our now annual winter trip, so the heat pumps will be great to have. My wife is over at the new rig right now starting to stow stuff. About 24 hours from now we should be driving it back to our spot. Can't wait!

Good for you guys Mike......
We are from the Indianapolis, IN area and this past winter was the first time we were "Snowbirds" spending our winter in SW Florida, Ft Myers area.
There were at least 2 times it was one or two degrees colder in Florida that back hone!!!!!! LOL I am glad Indiana had a mild winter but!!!!!! Hahahahaha
Yup - using the camp ground electricity to heat is the way to go......
Hope your delivery goes great today!
