Thanks all, appreciate it.  Home with it all shiny looking.  I know that's not going to last long.
Walk through wasn't to bad, saw some things I wasn't aware of and learned a few things.  Most of the basics I was aware of and there are so many technical walk throughs on the 192's from dealers.  Those help.  Used a WDH for the first time on our Traverse, that's probably the biggest thing I'm getting comfortable with.

	Congrats! I offer the same advice as jato... I remember picking up our 178, which was our first travel trailer as well. The walk thru tour felt a little overwhelming but I tried my best to pay attention and my wife made notes. It was very helpful to be instructed in all the little things you didn't even know were things! But honestly, this forum has answered more questions for me than I would have ever imagined. My adult children make fun of me when I talk about the Rpod Forum, but they are also impressed when I know the answer to their questions too!:-) Enjoy your Rpod!!

	We picked up our 177 when it was early March in Escanaba (U.P. Michigan). They had it indoors and warm, then spent over 3 hours with us going through all the plumbing, furnace, hot water tank and how all the controls worked as well as how to winterize, finding the valves and so on. It was a wonderful experience, they even went over a couple things twice to make sure we understood how everything worked. Hopefully your dealer will do the same before you hook it up and take it home. Make sure you record the walk-thru on your phone, have a list of questions to ask and make sure they answer them to your satisfaction.

	Picking up our new 192 tomorrow at the dealer. First hard sided camper since we last camped in a pop up for the last four years. Really looking forward to not cleaning canvas! Fingers crossed they "fixed" things we found sitting on the lot. Some rust areas mostly in the wheel well and scratches in the window.
