I had a punch list of 4 relatively minor warranty items that I took to RV World in Yuma, AZ. They were very accommodating to do the work even though they are not the selling dealer. Items were: (1) GFCI outlet kept tripping. Replaced with new. (2) Awning LED strip lights not functional. They were never wired to the switch when built. New fused circuit added. (3) Gap at floor between floor and wall--could see ground from inside. Screwed together and sealed. Beautiful repair-can't detect it. (4) Did not get 2nd set of compartment keys. On order. This brought the coach up to full functionality. I have since installed a 2nd battery under the entry step, and put a Maxx-Air fan in the middle vent location. A Maxx-Air or Fantastic Fan is one serious omission on standard equipment in my opinion, considering some of the other standard items included. I would happily exchange the outside TV that I doubt I will use for a powered exhaust fan. I also had the 1-1/4" to 2" hitch adapter permanently welded on since all my hitches and hitch accessories are 2".
I received the following questions in a previous post comment and provide brief answers here.
1. Is this a 4-season coach? The fresh water tank and all plumbing lines are inside and above the floor, so would be in the heated area. The holding tanks are under the floor but have electric heat jackets. Windows are single pane. The drain pipes from the holding tanks to the sewer outlet are fairly long and would be exposed to freezing. So the answer is, sort of but not really.
2. What is the length? Not measured, but 24' + or - a few inches is about right.
3. Spare tire? None included. I believe one could rig up something to fit underneath. Or get a rear carrier installed.
4. Does either cab seat swivel? No. Swivels are available for passenger seat only as after market.
5. Option for heated cab seats? No. Standard commercial Transit chassis with cloth seats.
6. What type windows? Single pane horizontal slide opening for 3 main windows.
7. Refrigerator size? Between 5 and 6 cu. ft.
8. Is the club lounge with barrel chairs still available? There are more Orion models including cab-over plans. My 24RB model is still listed. Drop-down bed with small dinette and 2 club chairs.
9. Does the table require using the leg support? Pretty much yes. The support was added because the wall supports only pulled out of the side panel if too much weight was put on the table. Like some large lady using the table as leverage to get up from the chair at an RV show (many times!)
10. Is the mattress iCool memory foam? No. It is generic 4" thick industrial foam. We added a 2" memory foam pad and cushioned mattress cover on top, and it is very comfortable.
11. Is there a house inverter. No, and no factory option.
12. Convection microwave. No, it's regular microwave, and no factory option.
13. Is a tankless water heater available. No factory option. It's a standard 6-gal DSI tank heater and no electric heater mode.
14. What are the 3 roof vents? Front and mid vents are standard crank-up. Rear bath vent has a 6" noisemaker fan. The front vent is covered when the bed is up against it. I installed a Maxx-Air fan in the mid vent position at my own expense.
15. Type of roof? Rubber membrane over plywood (TPO?)
16. Heat strip in A/C. No, and no factory option. A/C is ceiling ducted, which is a bit of an upgrade.
17. Option for leveling jacks? No. Probably can be done as after market if your budget can handle it.
