Imagine specifics when doing PDI
There are lots of PDI checklists out on the web, so I'm not looking for advise on that, in general. But, after going through some of the posts on this forum, some of the things I've picked up on to look at are:
Roof - ripples/bubbles in the membrane
Grease thrown from rear bearing seals
Doors not fully locking due to improper bow in the door and/or interference with deadbolt.
Any other items that an Imagine might be prone to, and should be verified before delivery?2017 Imagine 2670MK

The owner forums are a great resource when shopping for a new RV. Pretty much anything that could go wrong has been discussed at some point. We are picking our 376TH up in April, I have been lurking and making my Momentum specific PDI list. It's not very long.
Test all dump tank valves
Inspect bearings and wheels for grease
Is ladder bent
Check shower closure for leaks
Popping noise in hydraulics
Inspect roof edge seals
Check angle of landing gear for tow in/out
Find 6 point level up system auto reset breaker
Look at floor connection on slides, ensure good seal
See how many fresh water tanks there are, fill them to ensure they will fill.
Check for propane leaks around the regulator.
Inspect bathroom doors for staples that may scratch them.
Observe the 6 point level up jack positions, discuss with tech dragging and too much slope.
Check electric brake wire to see if it runs through the axle.
Pull drawers and inspect hardware installation. Watch for places where the wires will rub against drawers.

Test EVERY water faucet and drain for proper function and leaks.
WIth the water heater make them heat it with both electricity and gas and make sure it heats the water.
Test EVERY stove burner and the oven to make sure they light.
Function test every appliance....if you have an outside kitchen check it.
Bring a volt meter and test EVERY outlet for 120V.
If there are any USB charging outlets bring your USB charger and check all of them.Greg & Cheryl and our mini schnauzer Molly

I would also check all doors and make sure the locks function as required.
Also have them review how the slideouts function, how to resync them, and how to bypass them should they fail.Foard County News & Sassy Schoolmarm

If your model has a heat duct in the rear make sure you're getting heat and good airflow out of it.
Crawl underneath and see if any of the rubber-hose gas lines are kinked.2019 F-250 Supercab

Be sure they have connected the TV to the AV IN on the entertainment system. That way the audio from the TV will play through the speakers.
