2012 Flying Cloud

We just bought a 2012 25FB Flying Cloud with the microwave, convection and bedroom tv upgrades. We bought the unit used. A lady bought it in Sept. while on vacation with some friends and when she came back home the unit had been paid for and was sitting in her driveway. She called up the dealer and wanted to know where the steering wheel was. True story. Because the unit had to be sold as used and I suspect because of the time of the year we were able to get a tremendous deal on a unit we normally couldn't have afforded (50,000). What do you guys think? Did we do OK?

I've heard salesmen tell some whoppers, but that one takes the cake . . . must be true.

Congratulations, you will enjoy your 2012.

So, did you have the dealer install an after market steering wheel
or decide to do it yourself?
Congrats!

Wow, nice deal. We just bought our 25"fb 25b for a bit more though. Nice deal. We are planning our first big trip for after the holidays. Was a ton of fun camping for a couple days after we picked it up and can't wait for more time in the beauty!
