Finally - 5 mos, 22 days
Our Anthem 44B arrived yesterday in Orlando. Ours was the last one ordered from the Hershey, PA show in Sept. Weather delays affecting roads, materials, plant closures for extreme temps and holidays probably added at least a month to our order. DW and I happened to drive by the dealership and poppped in to see if it happened to be there and it had arrived the night before. The salesman talked to the delivery driver and he had no negative reports and matter of fact said he got 9 mpg on the trip. We were on our way to the airport to pick up guests and had only 15 mins to look it over, but the initial looks looked good. Couldn't assess paint yet because it was still road dirty but no salt.....yeah! Prep work begun by dealer. Planning on a monday delivery.
Sorry for the "recycled" picture. This is the same model and paint job I drove at the Atlanta show. Pics next week when it's clean and ours.
P.S. It appears no 2015 upgrades. Ours would've been in the last dozen 2014 models built I think. Mid 2014 upgrades incorporated. Somebody else's 2014 Anthem 44B with the same paint job arrived on the same day. Our used 13 Aspire will be at RVOne next week if anybody is shopping.

Wash/rinse/flush the underside really, really, well once you get it home. There is no way it does not have some road salt ( spray , puddles, dust, etc. ) coming from Middlebury this time of year. It will also give you a good look underneath. Might save rust later on in coach life.
Congrats and enjoy your new ride...

Agree. Probably will do it for a precaution. I hate to spoil the detail hand wash and wax job. I just saw a few lovebugs....that time of year again. Might require washing right after driving anyway.

I am really watching these recent deliveries to see if any of the 15 upgrades are on them. We have one of the last 14s being built. It will be a May delivery. I was told by the factory that there is a very good chance I will have the upgrades since its being built along side the 15s. I can only hope.

I did "hear" of one that had an induction cook-top installed. Mine was finished 1/31 and the only 2015 upgrade I saw on mine was the deletion of telephone wiring (good). I think mine was finished to early for any of the 2015 items. I was hoping, but....I wasn't lucky enough.
