Originally posted in February, our 33.2 is now being built and we stopped by last week to check it out. Still very early, but very fun to see 'the guts' of the coach as it comes together.

Other side. Clean factory, really enjoyed our tour.

thanks, it's nice to see 'our' Palazzo from a 'skeletal' view... I think I know my own coach inside and out by now, but it's always slightly different when you see it from these angles...

Day 6 of our 33.2 build saw sides and roof already in place with all kinds of work going on inside and out.

Yesterday the 'soon to be ours' 33.2 rolled out of production and here she sits buttoned up and ready to head over for paint.

More interior work will be finished post-painting, along with cleanup, followed by delivery to dealer. Wish Thor had a similar factory-delivery option like Newmar, but that's likely not possible at the kind of volume they put out. Interior is the new Newport cabinets and Quarry color scheme.

maybe they should just let you drive it to your dealer, versus paying a delivery service driver to do it.... since you are already there.

Have they told you how long it will be in paint before final delivery.? Our 36.3 goes into paint on the 9th....

I was told two weeks in paint, then back to Thor for another week for final items (eg. awnings), then cleanup and QC before release to dealer. The dealer we chose is Total Value RV in Elkhart, so it's only 20 minutes from the factory. We are hoping for our PDI/pickup in late June. Do you have an estimated delivery for your coach?

It goes into paint on the 9th , but we are really hoping to take delivery before he end of June.... fingers crossed....

Got an update...here she is post paint, ladder, awnings, etc. awaiting some QC. Hopefully they do a good job in that department!! Looking at dealer delivery in a few weeks. Looking forward to finally getting the camping season started!

Looking good sure the excitement is building! Really like the new floor style and back splash.

We love our 33.2.

Wish you many trouble free adventures while making wonderful lifetime memories.

Safe Travels to ALL.

Well, 22+ weeks later and our coach is here! Thanks for following and commenting along our build journey and thanks to those who have sent along Palazzo advice. Delivery is next week and today we visited the dealer in Elkhart to test drive and do our own pre-PDI. We spent nearly three hours scouring over the coach, inside and out. Really found only a few cosmetic items to add to the dealers prep for next week. It drove so smooth and quiet...a very pleasant difference from our previous gas coach! Hope to see many of you on the road and in camp. Safe travels!
