Noce pics. I have found to have the pics post correctly, I make sure they are wider than taller.
That is cool that you got to see your RV being built. How did you time it & get to go see it at this stage? We heard tours were not allowed due to COVID.
I see the new recliners don’t have that little table in the recliners anymore.

So your questions may have already been answered but we have purchased a 2021 375RES-R and I will contribute what I know. Hope this helps.
= we are told by GD that the new kitchen sink is 1 sink w/ a moving divider for making 2 bowls out of it - cant find image or details on that. No moving divider but the divider is 1/2 height.
= in the various vids we watched etc we see 3 tank pulls - 1 black and 2 grey.. but cant find details on where those tanks are.. ARE there three? and if it's 1 sewer exit or 2? There are 3, 1 black and 1 grey for bathroom and washer and 1 grey for kitchen. All drain out one exit
= the bathroom .. the toilet looks exceptionally close to both walls.. anyone have one to measure how far from the side walls the toilet is? Do not have measurements but it is significant space on both sides. I am not a small person and the space on each side is great.
= also bathroom is there a lip along the front of the shower? (ie if the shower glass wasn't there is there still a lip or straight out..) There is a lip for the shower door.
= bathroom - how much space is under the sink/counter and in that tiny linen closet? Good space under the sink and the linen closet has a small door but lots of space on the backend. Plenty of room for large supply of TP and PT and towels and such.
= kitchen i see an exhaust vent outside the kitchen wall - is the microwave exhausted? Yes
= insignia range - is that a storage drawer at the bottom or just trim? Just trim, but the cooktop and oven work are great. We did add a pizza stone in the bottom to get even heat and it cooks great.
= kitchen - it seems there is just 10 tiles or so on the range slide.. and 'something' around the window - is it steel? or ? Stainless Steel
= living room.. i see two black squares either side of cupboards above tv - are they speakers? Speakers, but not real happy with sound quality. We brought the Yamaha Sound Bar from our previous camper and it works great. Stows in the kitchen hutch flip top like it was made for it and we also added a small Sony blueray DVD player that fits in the same space for travel. Highly recommend this setup

= can both sofas fold out same time for beds? Yes and adults can get through to TV area. Also you can sit in the recliners when the beds are out and use them for leg rests. We have two teenage girls and have tested this. ;-)

@ciara_belle - looks like you got your questions answered.
How nice to get pictures of your rig at the end of the line......I do not recall anyone getting this opportunity and sharing it on this forum. Were you all there to take the pictures of did GDRV take them and share with you ? Are you getting FBP or were the decals waiting to be applied ?
Your one picture showing your RV plugged into a light weight extension cord (maybe a 12/3 or worse a 14/3 gauge) reminds me of our factory tour where the tour guide tried to also run an AC with all the other lights turned on. We had a serious brownout and the AC would not run. When we RV owners saw the light weight extension cord we shared the light weight cord as being a problem. Hopefully that 337 Reflection ACs and other electrical items were not damaged. I think the factory line workers understand this and would not do this.
Enjoy your new 375 when you get it !

I did a similar tour when our 310GK was built the end of Feb 2018. Grand Design was very accommodating and kept me updated on the production schedule. I flew out to the factory and watched our trailer roll off the production line. Had a great tour. At the time I was allowed to take all the pictures I wanted, but was asked (nicely) to not post any of them. Trailers that were to get full body paint had grey gelcoat/primer nose caps. If they were not getting FBP, the nose caps came to the assembly line already painted. Note: The nose caps on Solitude (and I think) Momentum are painted. Not sure about other lines. This was in 2018 and may have changed.

Hello @Danbo5. Welcome and a forum tip, if you use the "reply with quote" as I have done the post you are replying to will be quoted and the person will be notified. This way we will know who and what your are asking or replying to. If you just want to notify a person you can use the at "@" symbol and their user name.
If you are asking me how I arraigned to see my unit coming off the production line (it was an ordered unit), once the dealer had placed the order I called Grand design customer service. They told me when my trailer was schedule to be built. About a mount before that date, I called and confirmed the date, made sure I was on their tour list for that day. Grand Design was very accommodating. When I was on the tour, they were very clear on what I could (most areas) and could not photograph. There where about 8 of us on the tour. After the tour, my guide took me back out on the line and let me look in more details as I wanted. Be aware that Grand Designs policy (and guide) do very in how much freedom they allow you to have (where you can go, what you can photograph, etc.). Their one request, which I continue to honor, is to not post any pictures on production line or assembly details on social media.

I like how you have pics of your rig being built. Do they send these to you.
Is your colour scheme (living room furniture) the cotton or stone. I’m guessing it’s the cotton. Also, is it the faux leather or is it actually a cloth-style furniture?
25G fresh water capacity?
