Hello all! Brian & Nancy from western WI here, owners of a new 2021 240RL. We've been 3 months on the road since picking it up in late January, and couldn't be happier with it. It is a nice upgrade to our old 5er, and the build quality is what I expected from doing my pre-purchase research. We've been in temps from the upper 20s to upper 80s, and have been quite impressed with the insulation, as well as the function of the furnace and AC (and the other systems work well, too...).
As with all things, there are a couple things that could've been done better, too. For instance, I have to crawl under the rig and stretch to reach over an axle to drain the fresh water tank because of the direction the T- handle is pointing. Really?
Also, the DW has a love/hate relationship with the Solid Step entry stairs. They are indeed solid, but whoever designed them clearly never had to clean them. They can't be fully swept clean due to the grooves on the steps and the solid sides, and if they're wet when you pack up, all the water trapped in them drains out on the floor of the rig.
All that being said, we are very pleased with the rig and expect to get many years of great travel out of her.
Hopefully we can also both learn from and add to the knowledge on this forum.
