It has been a few months since the purchase of the motorhome and we still love it! There have been a few issues but the dealer has been very good about fixing everything. I have done a few mods myself. First I changed the mattress out to a foam one from Camping World. What a difference, the one that comes with the unit was terrible. Next mod was changing out both faucets in the sinks and upgrading the shower head.

I am also considering to put eternabond on all the seals on the roof. I was talking to someone who did this and he told me that if I don't do it now within a few years (even checking the chalking twice a year) I would definitely have water issue. He said that's what happened on his coach. What is everyones opinion? should I or should I not eternabond all roof seams?

What other mods should I consider? I am fairly handy with a screwdriver and a hammer, lol, and always looking to keep myself busy reinventing the wheel.

Thanks again for the input in advance.

Rick
