DEALER DID NOT INSPECT TIRES. SOLD US AN RV WITH 10 YEAR OLD TIRES. WE BLEW THREE TIRES ON OUR FIRST ROAD TRIP WHILE DRIVING ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY. WE PAID $1700 FOR A DELIVERY INSPECTION. EVEN WITHOUT THIS I WOULD IMAGINE THAT RV DEALERS SHOULD DO A SAFETY INSPECTION. WE DID NOT KNOW THAT TIRES HAD MANUFACTURE YEAR MODELS ON THEM.
