One of the reasons to own a RV is that you don't have enough work to do on your house

The only thing I would address first is the fuel leak. Fix it before you drive it home so as not to Burn your New Home Down driving it home. I would let Rick, at Colton Truck Terminal repair shop do the work. (909) 825-4080. Very good at what he does, and knows the Monaco brand better than Most shops.

And study up for your New CA non commercial class B license test. Jerry Brown has to pay for that Damn Train Somehow!

I will second Rich at Colton Truck Terminal. They did a great job on my Sig recently. There will always be something needing attention on the rig. Sounds like repairs common to an '06. My Sig had more repairs than that when I purchased. I am lucky the dealer ended up paying 75 percent of the repairs, most of which were at Colton Truck Terminal.

X's 2 on Colton doing the fuel leak.

While at Colton, have them check out your shocks - it's interesting how different shop/tech's sometimes see things a bit differently.

Go slow on the rest. Focus on working with the owner to learn the coach systems.

I'm a fan of Oregon Motor Coach, and also the no sales tax. They have good quality cabinet/counter capabilities - and are decent, honest to work with. Top down from Owner's, to the Shop Manager, to the tech's. Experienced good people to work with.

Again, go slow - and have some fun,
Smitty
