Vibe 26RB?

[reubenray]

I put a deposit on this today. Normally I would climb up the ladder to see what was on the roof, but it was raining today. So I have a few questions.

1) What brand is the digital tv antenna with booster?

2) Is the solar panel on the roof and will I need one or two batteries for this? It only had one battery in the front. I don't expect to be doing any boondocking.

3) Are there any issues I need to check on when doing the PDI?

Assuming the rig is new, the antenna is probably a King Jack. If you recall the shape, you can identify it on a web search picture.

If you don't plan to boondocks then one battery is sufficient.

Regarding PDI items (assume you are referring to the roof) I would check the following;
-all sealant is in good condition (this applies to the rest of the trailer as well). Once you leave the parking lot, any warranty issues resulting from insufficient sealing will be yours. I think the sealing requirements are to be verified every 90 days.
-ensure solar controller is functional. (ie, either via controller display or voltage measurement)
-ensure digital antenna rotates to stop points (inside) and that the green light is on the amplifier output that feeds the TV.

I was referring to the pre-delivery inspection. I will check the solar and the antenna. This model does not come with a ladder so I used another rv to look at the roof. I do not recall seeing a solar panel.

The PDI was done yesterday and being there was 2+" of snow on the roof I could not see much. There was a bulge where the solar panel was at and it was working. How it was I don't know with the snow on top. The tv antenna is a non operational King antenna.

I have an extended warranty that covers the seal and caulking that the dealer provided. I have to get it inspected once a year for this.
