My wife and I have narrowed down our choice to the Palazzo 37.4 and after reading through this thread I was wondering if those that have purchased it have any new thoughts. Should we pull the trigger on one?

I have a 33.3 and no regrets. If you have never owned an RV before, beware that all brands have minor issues and repairs that need to be made. Be ready for it and you will be fine. In my opinion, Palazzo is the best DP for the money.

Thanks! We are excited! Any add on we should consider right away? I’ve seen some talking about a lift that adds 4” when needed? But I thought the salesman said it had a switch built in that lowered it when parked raised it while driving. Also read about stability-sway bars and tire pressure monitors for right away must haves.

I would definitely get tire pressure monitors ASAP. Saved me twice already! Literally probably saved our lives. I use EEZtire. https://www.amazon.com/EEZTire-TPMS-...2126298&sr=8-3

There are other brands and types. Mine is super easy and reliable.

There is an air suspension built in and it raises to ride height with a switch and lowers when parked. However, some have put in an additional bypass valve and a temporary switch to raise the front a few inches more (for a few seconds) to avoid hitting the fiberglass cap going through gutters and angled driveways. I haven't put that switch in yet but wish I had! I didn't want to void any warranty on the air suspension on my new coach. I have hit the front cap many times as mine is very low, even lower than yours.

There are many things one can do for tweaking your rig but it isn't necessary. That is the beauty of a Palazzo, it comes fully equipped and for a very decent price. You will love it. Just be prepared to make minor repairs and fixes yourself and don't get frustrated...all brands have problems (see my prior posts). Post some pics!

Send me a private message if you want to. I am also in Utah. Happy to teach you all I know about Palazzo. I have learned a lot.
