Picked up my new Realm

Ok , starting new thread instead of piggy backing on other one.

Realm is home in Vegas. 3 day trip from Florida. Non eventful. So far so good. I’m sure issues will present but so far drive like a champ and all systems operating as designed.

Anyone know how to turn off audio on the lane departure alarm. Driving this rig is not easy in two lane roads to stay in between.

Congrats on the new coach. Since my coach does not have this feature I have no idea. Is your glass dash Spartan's or Silverleaf?

Appears to be Spartans.

You might ask the question over in the Entergra's section since there are a number of 2022 owners on that section.

Thank you. In Phx on first pleasure trip after taking home from Florida. Very complex but all systems doing well. Super impressed with tanks, drain system and all things basement.

Will be setting up first inspections as I want to stay ahead of any disqualification on any warranty claims as they appear.

Have a nice long weekend everyone

Very, very nice coach.

So, how about a few more details, layout, colors? Sounds like you purchased through RVOne in Orlando? How long from start to finish did it take for delivery?

Not sure if your aware of this forum, but you’ll get a lot of answers here on your new coach….

https://www.foreforums.com/

If we were to upgrade, I think we’d take the same route as you…

Good luck and enjoy your new ride!

There is talk in the Entegra section about a front sway bar not being installed on their coaches. I know my 2014 IH45 has one since when I was under the coaching checking things out I notice how big it was and that the front height adjuster was connected to it. In looking at the 2020 IH brochure the IH45 with the Spartan chassis has one listed. In looking at the 2021-2022 newer coaches brochure I do not see one listed.

I have a running buddy that has a 2019 Cornerstone and he says he can not take corners at the speed I am taking them at. He said his butt puckers up and he has to slow down. We both thought it was because my coach has outside mounted air bags on the drive axle, and active air. Now since I find out he does not have a sway bar on the front either, that may be another part of of why.

Tmyz, Do you know if your coach has a sway bar on the front?

I am going to be by the Factory tomorrow and I am going to have to ask about this.

Very interesting. I don’t know if I do or don’t but I can check tomorrow. I can tell you that the coach leans substantially in turns. Mote than my 05 country coach did. I was already thinking of active air. Was the removal of the sway bar by design or a casualty of cutting corners due to Covid or supply chain issues?

Please let me know what you find at factory.

Tom

Hi

My model is the LV1. No TV up front as design is to look backwards towards rear and see the TV mid ship adjacent to galley.

We have black walnut cabinets with gray floors and upholstery. Very very pretty. These are our colors in our residence as well

We bought from RV one because they answer the phone. I called MHS and got caught in voice mail hell so I called RV one. They answered and had this one coming in. I saw it and pulled trigger. Whole process about 4 weeks from start to PDI. Relatively painless.

I had no idea of another forum. I look forward to checking it out. Thank you.
