Thanks a million. Npw the dealer will know I'm not making this stuff up - - not that he does, mind you. But it's hard to dispute this type of visual comparison.
Thanks again,

Do you suppose you could post a picture similar to the one I posted of your unit with the slide-out in the fully lutward position ? Might come in handy in convincing the dealer there's an issue here. Pretty sure the service mgr sees and agrees with me that there is something wrong ....but a picture is worth 1000 words and I am 2 hours (each way) from the dealership. Not exactly a hop, skip and a jump but I'll drag the Pod down there if necessary.
Thanks in advance,
Mark J

Slog, my 177 does not have a gap like that.

One more try ...
Looks like this time it worked. I think the gap I am talking about is obvious, but just in case I put a small torpedo level on the floor pointing at it. The slide-out is in the outward most position. There is an identical gap at the bed side of this cabinet section but the area is a tad tight to get in for a photo.
So ...is this normal ?? Doesn't seem so to me. If FR won't fix it I am going to make a small wooden panel and stain it to match the rest of the cabinetry.

That's easy to fix.....just post 5 more times and you will become a "Senior" member! (You become a Groupie at 50 posts and a Senior at 100, I think, - the program does this) The problem I have in posting pictures is that it will not accept a file over 500KB. This is kind of hard in that even my modest camera produces files in the 1.5 - 2.0MB area. I crop&save, crop&save, crop& save until about 1/4 of the original picture remains....not the best solution. As furpod suggests, a lot of folks like to use Photobucket. If you do it the way I do, once the picture is uploaded, you will want to resize it to display well in the post. I have found something in the 500-600 (H & W) fits well on the page.
