I hope the tech checkout is better than the one we got. After signing the papers we found out all he did was turn stuff on, if it ran it was OK. Luckily all three heat pumps work fine and still trying to figure out the 10 disk CD changer as he never checked it and I can't find a way to turn it on. Also found that the autogen start doesn't work no do any of the other gen start buttons. All the tech did was start the gen from the panel on the gen and that does work.
Yep, I trusted too much and didn't verify!!

Sounds great, sure hope the dealer isn't Clear Choice.
