After R&R of my Sony w/Sirius and seeing the wiring mess behind the radio, I can understand how one would get wires crossed, like on your sub-woofer.
Although I like my AS, what bothers me is the lack of quality control and/or ignoring it. These problems should have been checked and resolved prior to shipment. My view/assumption is manufactures today knowingly let issues go (cost savings gained by not correcting their mistakes) and count on a signficant percentage of consumers not bringing their warranty issues in to correct. This aids the manufacture with lower warranty expense. In our case it's easier to correct minor discrepancies ourselves rather than the time and expense of a long trip to a dealer. Your fortunate being only 30-40 minutes from Holiday. Anyway, in the end all good things come to pass. Keep me posted and enjoy your new AS, Larry

Footnote; I installed a HAHA and am very pleased with the handling. Noticable difference from towing w/o HAHA on our 25'.
You're making some really good points. I think the manyfacturers just brush off a lot of the little things thinking that they will either go unnoticed or the dealer/owner will deal with them. I know Holiday will fix it all, they're that kind of a dealership. They really put their customers first - but they shouldn't be the ones that get stuck with it.

I've only had it a day and the list is already growing. The most annoying is having to turn on the overhead lights to get the sub woofer. If we're settling in for the night to watch a movie, I don't want to have the interior lit up bright enough to perform surgery in order to have a little depth to the sound track!

We got the Reese dual Cam. We don't have much towing eaperience but it seemed pretty easy to tow. They say the HAHA is pretty slick. We just didn't want to spend the $$$ right now.

Otherwise... it was great to wake up this morning and see it sitting in the driveway!

Great pictures! I'd say your ready to seek adventure!!
In your pictures, I did notice one thing...the wine glasses were full and the bottle was not yet empty. I hope that has changed!!! Larry
