I'm upgrading from a perfectly good '04 29RK to a '11 32MK. Will have new wood color, just about every published option plus other options like DP windows, 50 amp service, max. lino, 7-func remote. Second unit for another couple (their 1st RV) is a 325CK.
Should be here in time for the Tx rally. Now I need to decide what to do with the 29RK, I still need to use it next month so can't put it on the market til March.

I ordered an 11 305SK last weekend down at Tampa. They have one coming down the line now, going to change color scheme to what my DW wanted may have it by the end of the month. Sooner than I really wanted it but I'm not going to complain. Leaves me a lot of work to do in a hurry got to get a 5'r hitch and the trade cleaned out. and a bigger place to store it.

Boy I hope the DW doesn't read this! She will want a new one for sure. I need to wait another 3-5 years before I start shopping again. Congrats to all.

Frank,
Sure, but just like a 'free' car wash, donations gladly accepted to pay for it. Just kidding.

Time is getting real short to pick up the new units. Both left the factory on 2/22 and the 325CK arrived at the dealer on 2/25. Bad timing, our friends were out of town for a week and therefore scheduled the PDI for tomorrow, 3/9. Meanwhile, my 32MK sat at the transport yard all this time and the dealer had to call to get a delivery commitment for today. Anyway, the dealer just talked with the actual transport driver and he should be arriving at the dealership within the hour. So, it looks like we will be picking up both units tomorrow.

Success, we managed to pick up both units yesterday. At my request, the dealer scheduled us as soon as they opened. Time sure went fast doing two PDIs back to back. The dealer also replaced a bad fuse in my truck and helped adjust the brake controller in the other truck. I hit the road first and had enough time to get home and carefully back the 32MK into my RV port. I have about 3 inches overhead clearance and can open all three slides. As soon as I finished, it was time to help get the 325CK into a covered storage site. It took some time when you can't see into a dark shed, so glad I have some skylights in my Rv port.
So much material to read, I haven't even started. I sure like the dual pane windows, no crank out vent windows, only sliding vents (but that will be an issue went it rains, guess you can't have everything). No carpet in the main floor except for the slideouts. I have already replaced the factory wardrobe latches with my magnetic latches. But there is a ton of work to do.
