All excellent points hddecker!
One other thing about that initial ride our TT made from the factory to the dealer.........
That was a "shakedown" maiden voyage. It might not have been camped in, but it likely experienced a fair amount of adventure.
In a way, they did us a service by giving the dealer (if they are a good one) an opportunity to provide the customer with a really well done PDI!
I know my recently purchased TT had a loooong PDI list that I had nothing to do with. I'm kind of grateful to somebody that I will never meet.
