I think it was you that said that to me when I was all bummed about the rollover and starting the ordering process over.
Here is a couple of positives.
The cabinet in the kitchen before on the 31SL was about large enough for a soup can. This new one has a full size deep cabinet. More storage in the bathroom with a mirrored vanity with storage behind it.
Also it wound up being a 2017 model. I did not know they made them that early in the year..
So you were so correct!

Was the wait worth it ? .

Bought some distilled water. As something is going funky with electrical system on my trip to Florida. Now I understand the complaints about how hard it is to service those batteries.

some have purchased a battery fill device that hooks up a plastic line to each cell and you pour the water into a reservoir to top them off. They are a pain to get the cover off and then fill each cell if I had kept the wet cell batteries I would have installed a pull out tray and a new battery box that was easier to access the batteries, I installed Interstate AGM's and do not have these issues anymore

I asked but no one could tell me.....
More than likely there was enough damage, both inside and out, to total the unit. If that was the case, then I am sure the insurance company took it to the nearest salvage yard and sold the unit to the highest bidder.
To tell you the truth, I was worried that it may get back into the system repaired but I would think there are disclosure laws that would notify a potential buyer.

Ya I would agree, there would at least have to be a disclosure. I was buying a brand new King Ranch Expedition last year and noticed stains in the back. Turns out the transporter bounced it off the trailer and hit the roof rack causing it to crush the roof and leave holes. The Dealer looked up there and immediately said "oh man- so sorry, this cannot be sold". He didn't try to negotiate or anything - he just said it is no longer a new car.

Was this tube purchased, or ABS pipe? I had planned on using square PVC fencing post tubing. Love the blocks too!

I purchased it from D&W Inc. online and they are located in Elkhart. It's a two piece extendable tube. 43" to 80" With a great door on both ends. I mounted one side to the frame and the sewer side I mounted the bracket to the aluminum skirt which also reinforced that. I also added one 4" bracket to the frame on the sewer side just so it wouldn't have any flex since I went to the skirt.
Also just finished mounting the back up camera on the RW but still need to do the truck. It's a hardwired system and was not easy getting that wire up to were I mounted it. Very bad picture because of the reflection but you get the idea.
