    Have you checked the VIN number with GD?

    We have a 2021 310GK-R and we would gladly give up our little tray tables. They are probably missing from the new furniture because it was not the smartest design. So easy to spill from the tray tables we just took them off and stored them.

    As for how we feel about our Solitude? Couldn’t be happier! We are here in North Texas riding out the blizzard of ‘21 in comfort. Lots of people having issues but knock on wood we haven’t experienced anything but running out of propane.

    I am experiencing the same thing with my Imagine 2670MK - low points froze but once I had that sorted out this 2021 TX blizzard has been a breeze other than spending 8 hours finding/buying propane yesterday LOL!

    I think you'll be happy with this route. It took us a full 18-months to fully resolve all of our day-1 punch list items. Both sides contributed to the delays, but it wasn't the best start to our relationship with GD.

    We often need to have some blinds down because of neighbors or sun, and I would not have accepted the black ones if I knew I could get the white/cream ones.

    Best regards,

    Sorry in advance to anyone whose commented already, but if you’re paying the kind of money you pay for any GD, but especially the upper ends units like this, if you don’t get what you ordered or want, then it’s up to you to contact either GD or the dealer to ensure they fix it. As for the hot water tank, they need to replace it...period. But after all this, honesty, if it was me, I would demand a replacement unit or your money back.

    This is a great thread and interesting to learn about model changes. My $.02 is that I will likely always buy used from someone like y'all that have already sorted out the challenges yet kept the RV pristine. We bought used in Aug 2020 and moved into full-time and couldn't be happier. The prior owner ran me through all of the challenges he had with the dealer and what they swapped out and I feel like he took the brunt of issues. I still have some quirks here and there (front jacks retract when I retract slides, good grief) but all part of the journey to figure out the glitches .

    "3. The water heater was rusted. The anode rod was all corroded and the opening to the water heater was really rusty. The water heater looked old or like it had been sitting out exposed to the elements for weeks."

    This concerns me. The only way for the anode rod to corrode is if it was USED Me thinks you need to call GD with the vin and have them track the date and where this unit has been?

    So, the shower fixture on the newest of the new is now silver/chrome.

    You can see the newest of the new build for Solitude on the 346FLS listing on our website.

    Interesting that the loveseat has the 2 cup holders. We have a 310GK-R on order, so can we expect the dual cup holders and the silver/chrome shower fixture?
