We are concerned, as we live in Texas and we have been glad of our two acs in our little Imagine 2800 BH (although one is a 13.5). We were assured the “it would be fine, you don’t need it”. We feel like we don’t have a choice, but still there is some concern. Or dealer said he even contacted Grand Design, just to be sure the three acs are not available. Delivery is not expected until February. Haven’t finalized our order yet.
    Our new Momentum has 3 Coleman 15,000 and they run fine on 50a. I don't think there soft start but I could be wrong.

    You can still get a solitude with 3 ac’s. I ordered one today from my dealer. I questioned them when they said they could order one for me. I had heard you couldn’t. Apparently if a customer orders a solitude and ask for 3 ac’s they will build it. A dealer cannot order one for their lot. It must be requested by the buyer to the dealer. Now the wait for my 390rk-r...

    I wish we could get a straight answer. I ordered a 390rk mid Oct. and was told at the dealer that a 3rd ac is not available. After reading some of the topics about the third ac I contacted Grand Design directly about a week ago and was told that the 3rd ac is not available and I asked if it was at least pre-wired for a 3rd and was told that they are not pre-wiring for a 3rd unit.

    Our new 2021 310GK-R has 3 AC’s and purchased off the lot. That was one of the things that made us purchase this unit rather than ordering and waiting additional months. Missed out on the DP windows but wasn’t a dealbreaker for us.

    You can order anything you want, but whether or not they build it that way is TBD.

    Does Grand Design let the dealer know in advance if a custom order can't be completed due to parts shortages or do they just deliver the RV without matching the order sheet?

    They will send a build confirmation right before it hits the production line to verify all options. Also, before releasing the unit, they will call for funding, so if the cost doesn't match, we know something changed.

    Thanks for that information. I wouldn't be happy if I ordered a unit with FBP and 3 AC's and it rolled in with neither!

    Grand Designs now accepts orders for 3 ac’s on Solitudes

    We found out that Grand Design is accepting orders for 3 ac’s on Solitudes as of last week. The supply chain has loosened up some. We were told by Grand Design directly that all our dealer had to do we amend the order. As long as the unit isn’t in production yet, they will allow it. We are happy, because we really wanted the 3rd unit in our 3740BH. Cost added was a little over $1,000; we feel like it is money well spent.

    It figures this would happen. As I stated earlier I ordered my Solitude in October and at that time couldn't get 3 ac's but what really bothers me was Grand Design told me that they were not even pre-wiring the trailer for a third ac so if I want to add a third unit I will have to have wiring installed. I took delivery of my trailer beginning of this month.
