Very interesting.

Will do on the power foot rest. I will like it when the Mrs. drives, I hope she will try driving, so far she claims it will be too big. Would love to visit Red Bay and see our coach in progress. Thought maybe we could fly to Tampa, see family and drive from there, but it would still be a 10 hour drive. Looking forward to hearing about your fuel mileage. Being used to averaging just a shave over 21 mpg on our Sprinter motorhome it will hurt no matter.

Is there a list of hidden options?

Yep, Oregon may be a bit far. We are 7 hours from Red Bay and Tampa is at least 4 more. I am not aware of any hidden list, but when you are custom ordering there are a lot of things that can be changed for the right amount of money. Danny Inman is the man at Red Bay you need to talk to if you have anything in mind. If it's on a Phaeton, then it's at least worth asking if it can be put on a RED. A friend of mine ordered a RED the day after I did and his dealer was not aware of the power foot rest. He called him and was very happy to be able to get it added to his order. Our Breeze had a memory foam mattress, and I found out too late that we could have upgraded the RED mattress to memory foam.
