Jostalli-i got it today at 130pm- at 3pm i finally got the DMV inspection(massachusetts makes even brand new vehicles get inspection tag).

at 310 pm i got it to the storage facility- the wife was frustrated on my futzing around. at 4pm we headed home. i will go back myself tomorrow to my hearts content..

I will say it drives like a car. i was shocked that i could see so easily out the rear windows using the rear mirror. if the vehicle was at least say 15 feet behind me i could see them-amazing out those back windows. the zions floorplan allows this.

anyways the wife and i only had 2 arguments and 3 harumps from her. not bad for us-lol

[gerrym51]

Awesome. Great news on the OCCC. Maybe they made some changes since the show models, or the number was just a typo.

I'm surprised you didn't take it to the house for the first couple days to play and check things out. I certainly did. The HOA can send me a letter if they like!

I've noted the same thing in the Travato. You can get enough of a view out the back windows in your rearview to be useful. I can see traffic, as well as if the bike is still on the rack.

Yes, please post us some pictures of interesting details. Would love to see your underhood generator, and your battery setup.

Awesome. Where are you going this weekend?

[rclemins]

Yes please post some pictures soon. I expect to order a Zion in you configuration this fall for spring delivery upon my "graduation" from work... I'm anxious to have a look, and hear about you impressions / experiences with this beauty... Congratulations!

if it seems like i'm delaying-i have not brought this up but the wife just got out of the hospital 2 weeks ago. she had been in for a week. she is still not feeling up to snuff and when she's not feeling well-times are testy.

I will tell you so far i love the van-but since it's at an outdoor storage facility and can only stay a couple hours at a time-before i have to get back to her.

I will say i've tested everything and everything so far works. the cover they put on the dual/dump area is a pain-but with a little practice putting it on and off should go better

i am hopeful we can go out for a few days next week-sometimes life happens

Best wishes to your wife...

Best wishes also.

Best wishes.

Hope she's feeling better soon. You two are going to have lots of fun in your new Zion. Easing into using it will probably work out fantastic for the long term.

The published OCCC may have allowed for the optional Onan.

Best wishes from "way up north". Hope she returns to full health and is feeling refreshed real soon... Youe new Zion should help with that!
