We live in the NW suburbs of the twin cities. Bought our 303RLS from Pleasureland in Ramsey this spring. We love it. We’ve had a few minor issues which I think are to be expected. A broken screw in a cabinet hinge, a water leak in the connection to the water heater and a fan broke off the back of the fridge. We have camped for 30 years and this is our first 5th wheel. Much more technology than we previously had, but forums like this and YouTube really helped prepare us and made everything easy to figure out. Backing it into a site was my greatest fear. The 33 foot pull behind was easy, but this one is a bit more challenging. After practicing in a parking lot I felt much more confident and I’m happy to report that after 4 trips I’m no longer feeling anxiety as I get to my site. Enjoy!

Let the dealer know your expectations and that you will be coming in with an extensive PDI list. We checked everything front to rear and from the roof to the under carriage. There were a few areas on the roof which required some additional lap sealant. We checked the water in the battery (low). Our dealer (Coachlight RV in Carthage Missouri) was great. We did not sign anything until all issues on the PDI were corrected.
We love the 303 but after 4 years, the kitchen slide has now decided to put a groove in to the floor in front of the island.Geoff and Cheri

BEFORE you give sign anything OR give them any more money take that PDI list and be sure it is completed to your satisfaction. If they want to make a sale, at this point a slam dunk, they will appease you. If you intend to use them as a servicing dealer for warranty it would be a good indicator.

Bring a level with you and check to see if the leveling system has been calibrated. We did not know to check until we got home and parked ours. Had to do some internet searching to find out how to calibrate the level.

One option would be to check this website to find a local certified inspector. They will do a great job inspecting your new trailer, developing a punch list and discussing the issues with the dealer. They have several levels of service and each one has a little different approach to their services. It is well worth the few hundred dollars if might cost to get a pro to do the inspection. its the RV equivalent of a home inspection.

A few issues on our 303.
1. Recall on LP regulator
2. Recall on microwave / convection oven.
3. See how long it takes for fridge to get to proper temps.
4. Check for saw dust and dirt in cabinets, drawers, carpets and lights.
5. Have dealer pull the wheels and check for grease on the brakes. Sometimes the transport people do this to get better gas mileage.
6. Check to see if baffles are properly installed in upper fridge door outside vent. Blocks exhaust cooling air.
We love our 303 and Grand Design

A little late, but........... We are on our third RV. Some PDI show you how to turn things on and off. Make sure it does turn on and off and stays on for around 5 minutes. The frig is a good example..it works both electric and propane. Make sure both run the frig for a period of time.
Slides...make sure they go all the way out and retract back fully.
Just on and on with anything that has a switch or dial.
Just remember...once you pull it off the lot, you are a warranty customer not a paying customer. Warranty repairs typically are not their priority.2019 303 RLS Reflection 5er (nickname - Coyote)
