After much searching, pricing, etc we drove home with our Reflection 297RSTS today. We are so excited. I came here for advice on a new truck due to an ordeal with my 2015 F150 and ended up with a 2017 F250 King Ranch Powerstroke with HD tow package. We were looking at Imagines and stumbled on a used 2017 297RSTS which saved us a chunk of change. Anyone would be hard pressed to know it is used. The truck towed it like a champ and averaged 13.8 MPG. It was much easier than I ever thought it would be and we towed it home on one of the windiest days we have had in AL this year. I joined this forum and downloaded PDI checklists and all checked out. We even had the good luck to do the PDI during a downpour, I mean a toad strangling, good ol' Bama storm. I learned about the Lippert brake issues here, told the dealer who didn't know about it, but they found one bad axle leaking grease. Touch wood, it looks like we are off to a good start thanks to all of you. We are so excited to hit the road Friday for this weekend. Thank you all so much for your willingness to post issues but also the good. I am sure I will be posting more questions here and on the FB page. It will be a while before I can contribute as this is our first camper of any kind. Just THANK YOU!

Al, I'm so excited for you. You turned your F-150 Lemon into a great find, F-250 diesel w/HD Lemonaid. Then you stumbled upon a lightly used 2017 297RSTS at a good price.
Congratulations and welcome to the family.Jerry & Linda
