We picked up our new Journey 17-55-9 today from Brisbane Camperland after a 5 month wait. It was a good pick up, with everything seeming to work as planned but there were the usual stuff ups and things not done as per request. But the classic was the placement of a power point which we had requested above a small piece of bench beside the stove so we could plug in our coffee machine. The factory put it on the wall right slap in the middle of the stove so that if you opened the lid on the stove, the power point was blocked. 
The dealer shifted the PP as shown in the picture.
Some of the other problems include the TV power point and 12V socket were to be set as high as possible so as not to interfere with people in the bed. But it was not done. Nor was the jockey wheel placed inside the A frame as requested as it could not be fitted with the jerry can holder in position.
Then the storm hit. No hail but it has not stopped raining for around 6 hours so far.
We placed blankets over the sky-lights just in case but it all seems OK.

But good luck working on Carmel. She does not say a lot but "no" is a small word.
