James, I understand your concern when the coach moved.

The Aspire drive axle is a bit different than the Anthem and Cornerstone.

As the coach airs up, or down it will move. This is due to the arc of motion described when the rear axle is at ride height, and the suspension deflates. It also happens when airing up.

To be safest, give your coach a healthy amount of room fore and aft.

I hope this helps,

-Matt

P.S. I hope your dealer correctly taught you the start up sequence. Start Engine, Air up, Jacks up, Slides in, roll out.

Matt, yes the dealer did work with me on the start up sequence, however I got conflicting information from the sales guy and the tech.

Thanks for the reminder.

Remember to that if you are on the jacks and you release the park brake to reset the EC-30 safety sense the jacks will retract automatically because it thinks you want to go driving and cannot without the jacks retracted.

Air up, jacks up, AIR UP AGAIN, then slides in and drive. I know that's being picky with the wording but that second air up is important. You really don't want to move those slides without full air and we have heard of too many new owners who don't wait that extra minute or two...some with nasty results.
