We finally picked up our 337 today

[grampscamper]

We purchased it back in December and had the dealer store it for the winter. We did the orientation today. We're very pleased with the fit and finish. I love the auto leveling. Everything seems to be working well. We did get a bit of a surprise though. When we arrived home I tried to lower the front landing gear and the panel was dead. I thought this isn't a great start. I thought maybe a poor connection on the battery so I tried the basement lights. They didn't work either. When I went around to the front to check the battery I found both leads laying loose. The dealer didn't bother to hook up the battery at all. I never thought to check it because everything worked at the dealership. They had it plugged in there so everything was running off 120 volt.
Now the work begins. Tomorrow I hope to install my backup camera and a slat wall system in the basement area. I just wish it would start to warm up a little here. Our first camping outing is in three weeks.

Congratulations! Welcome to the group! Have fun

Congratulations. We get ours tomorrow. What model camera are you installing. I want to install one on mine too. Let us know how that goes. Thanks

Congratulations! We got ours at the end of February. It snowed a little last night, and more on the way this afternoon. It might be a while before we get to use it.

I have a Garmin BC20 that works with my GPS. I had it installed on our last 5th wheel. It doesn't have a high resolution picture but works great for backing up. I'm almost done the installation. I had to come in to warm up. It's cold and snowing a little here.
Oldguy, I feel your pain. Winter doesn't want to end here either.

Thanks. Also is it wireless and where get you get the power from?

[grampscamper]

Yes it is wireless. I think it's discontinued now. The replacement is a BC30. I mounted the camera on the license plate bracket. When I purchased the camera I ordered the 50' extension cable. I ran the cable along the I beam to the front battery compartment. I got the 12 volts directly from the battery and mounted the transmitter in the top front basement area.

Here are a couple of pictures of the slat wall system I installed today. I haven't quite finished it but it helps to keep things a little more organized.

Nice job. How did you mount the slats to the wall? Thanks.

[grampscamper]

Thanks PipeMan. I mounted them with short screws directly to the basement wall. The wall material isn't very thick so 5/8" screws may work best.
I may remove it and install 1/2" plywood backer to give it more strength. I didn't install any backer on our last trailer and it was fine.
