That should offset some depreciation, yes?
"Everything fixed" sounds like me.

I called Dutchman customer service and they were very nice, told me to take it to a local dealer for repairs. I have an appointment for August 14th.

Their customer service people are VERY NICE. That's where it ends.

I was afraid of that.

Not that I'm standing up for Dutchman but they like most all RV's get there frames from another vendor. They don't fabricate or assemble them. IF they checked the lugs, it would have been were they torqued to the correct foot lbs.

Ordinarily, when they transport frames, they do them in multiples and the tires are NOT mounted to the structure. When they offload is when they put tires on, unless they do them one at a time. They may even build them at the factory. Sometimes, I have seen where the axles were not even mounted to the frame for transportation.
