Picked up 2016 179 3 weeks ago and took first trip to one of our favorite places Indian Boundry Telico Plains Tn.r-dome was easy and used . Tried watching DVD movie with Jenson system kept losing signal any recommendations. Towing with Honda Pilot was effortless ,looking foward to long Memorial Day/week trip planned. Pleased with the amount of storage. Would like to purchase roll out awning for slide out roof, any good aftermarket sights to save money?


If you are losing picture and/or sound watching a DVD, I would check the cable connections between the Jensen and TV. If yours is similar to mine, there will be a cable with 3 different colored "RCA" type plugs at the TV and at the Jensen unit. The Jensen unit would need to be removed, as the connection are on a multi-wired "pigtail" coming out of the back of the unit. The faceplate of the Jensen can be CAREFULLY pried off, which will reveal 4 screws holding the unit in the cabinet. Once removed, the entire unit will slide out of the hole.

If you are having problems with broadcast television, that may be another issue.

PS - Welcome mcclurey!

"Just purchased new 179 Model.  Looking forward to picking up from dealer in next couple weeks.  In the meantime I thought I would give a shout out to those looking to purchase a 179 cover.  Classic Accessories just added the Model 4 cover for the 179 so the door opening is in the right place.  Ordered yesterday for $208.00 including shipping.  If you want one I think you have to order from them direct as they haven't rolled out to other vendors yet (Amazon, Walmart, etc.)"

Mcclurey, do you have a website or any other ordering information for that cover.....???

I ordered the same cover last week.  These folks were very helpful.  Will post more after I receive and use the cover.

Just received my cover.  Inside the cover box was a notecard that says if you go to ClassicAccessories.com/loyalty and you register in their loyalty program you will get a 15% off a cover.  Darn it.  To late for me but anyone who hasn't purchased a cover yet I would suggest registering first and then buy your cover.  It would have been worth $30.00 if I would have known.
On a good note I'm picking up my new 179 tomorrow.  YAY!
