  • 50 AMP Cable

    I just picked up our new 2021 337rls From Lazy Days in Tampa and they gave me an old 50 amp cable. My question is, does grand design ship there units with a new cable or should I just feel lucky that the dealer gave me one? Our first camper (Keystone Travel Trailer) came with a band new 30 amp. Just thought for what your paying you should get a new cable.

    Every new unit we sell comes with a new cable. I wonder if they used it on the lot and it now looks old.

      Yes a new unit should come with its own new cable. Maybe check with your dealer and see if they will make it right for you.

        GDRV ships it with a brand new cable. Also, in the past, the cable had a couple of blue LED lights to show that both legs were working. On an old cable, those may be missing or now working.

          I am thinking you should have a new cable that fits the size of your RV. If I recall correctly, when I picked my MO up a traded the new cable in the RV for a 36' cable they had on the shelf. It was a really good move... On my first RV, the dealer had it on the lot for over a year and had taken it to RV shows. When I looked at the battery they had in it I was aghast to see a really old dirty battery and not a new one. It also had two spare tire handles in it, one did not fit. Somebody got a trailer without a spare tire handle, I'll bet that was annoying....

            We picked up our new Solitude from Lazydays-Tampa in March. It included a new cable and new battery. I had asked what length cable came with it, and one of their people said they come with a cable the same length as the unit, which it did. We spent a few nights in their transition area side by side with our old TT moving everything over and getting used to the new one. Our new unit was ordered in Jan, so had not been used in any shows etc.

            No, we don’t pull the Solitude, it’s permanently parked on our campsite in SW Fla.

              Thanks everyone, I thought it should but was not sure seeing how my first unit the power cable was hard wired. It seems like my unit was pillaged for parts, they had to hunt down remotes for the tv, fireplace and radio and did not have the manuals. I have to take it back in for a few repairs that we found so I will see if they are will to replace the power cable, I did find a cut in it so I'm hoping they will replace. Thanks again for the help
