2004 2619 questions - pending purchase

appleton · 07-30-2012, 04:46 PM

Hi y'all. After moving on from my totaled 98 2720, I'm considering an 'upgrade' to a 2004 2619. As far as I can tell, the layouts are identical, but you're losing the 1' of storage space under the rear bed correct?

A few questions the owner hasn't been able to confirm for me.

Does the attached picture look like the built in microwave or an oven? Owner is saying oven, but it looks more like a microwave to me.

What does the pin just below the gas tank look like? Part of the WDH setup or a pin for a swing away hitch? owner doesn't think it has a swing away, but i'm puzzled by the pin.

Also, it needs new vertical supports for the Fiamma awning. I'm assuming Ed at TM can't help with this. Does anyone know the cost or place for Fiamma replacements? Does Fiamma sell direct?

I'm still relatively new and driving a considerable distance (~400 miles), but the owner sounds legit and described it well. Other than the obvious (appliances, furnace, A/C, hot water heater, water pump, tires etc) and opening/closing it, what else should I keep an eye out for?

That is definitely a swing hitch! The oven looks like a microwave w/convection oven! I believe the stove/oven are 1 unit!

The pictures say it is 2004, 2720?

PS: The propane cover looks massive! I wonder if you will have to remove it to open the front shell?

parts for awing can be bought online direct, but make sure you are sitting down,

but then again , you get what you pay for, a top notch product
imo

Going from the 2720 to a 2619, you also lose the Queen bed in the back. Instead, it is a double.

Looks like a swing hitch in your picture, with a WDH chain hanger mounted to the frame behind it. But a bigger picture would help.

I would assume TM will not be of help for Fiamma parts, and in my experience, Fiamma thinks very highly of the parts they sell -- they are pricey. I wouldn't be surprised if they charged $100 for each awning support, but I hope not. Give 'em a call.

I have that Microwave and it is a microwave/toaster oven.

Thanks for the picture Earl, that confirmed my suspicion about the swing hitch. Good deal. I mislabled the pictures, it's really a 2619.

Dave, thanks for pointing that i'd be losing the queen bed along with the rear storage cabinets. I think i'm ok with it, after confirming the microwave/convection and swing hitch.

I'll keep ya'll posted w/ some pictures when it arrives!
