Look at a Diplomat

Hi all. I'm going to go and look at a 09 Diplomat 41PDQ. Was wondering if there is anything I need to pay special attention to beside the standard condition and making sure everything works. We currently own a Winnebago Vectra so are not new to the rv community.Thanks

Check these threads.

Great rv. Be sure to drive it more than 5 miles. Get it out on the freeway and see if it handles comfortably.

We have a 09 38PDQ Diplomat and really like it. Other then the normal things to check, check where the side panels meet, just above the compartment doors. We had several loose screws along this area. Not big deal, just something to watch. We also had the step cover come loose and again not a big issue. Just tightened the screws and added a couple more.

Dupdyke it has the isl 400 with 4 slides. Hydraulic automatic leveler and no aqua hot. Been reading the technical threads here. Where in La Feria do you stay? We have friends down there and are planning to come down first part of April to visit them.
