Tent Trailers: Pop-up Camping: New Coleman purchase

» RAMMER - New Coleman purchase

First of all, this site is great. Very helpful. I have just purchased a new 1999 COLEMAN UTAH from a local dealer(our first pop up). My wife and I did alot of research and decided on the COLEMAN brand because of reliability and word of mouth from other owners and friends. We looked at numerous used pop-ups before deciding on the Utah. We were at the dealer looking a used ones, when the salesman suggested we look at the Utah, it has the slideout dinette,3 way fridge,furnace,cassette potti,awning and a/c will be added. Including the brake control and ball installion we got it for $9000 on the road. The dealer even promised a packet of camping discount coupons and a hour long class on setup and all features when we pick it up. I feel we got a good deal with full factory warranty. All of the used ones in this area (Baltimore, MD)at dealers only carry a 30 day warranty. The wife wanted the factory warranty, can't wait to pick it up this Saturday and use it this weekend. Sorry to ramble on.
I have a few questions 1)I am concerned about the roof sag problem. I was told by a different dealer that this problem only applied to early to mid 90's models. Mine is a 1999 and it will have the roof a/c unit. Has anyone in the northeast experienced this problem? since it was stated that it is more common in warmer climates.
2)I have read about a recall on the 3 way refrigerators, I believe it had to do with cracked gas fittings. Anyone have any info?
3)I wanted to have bike racks installed on the roof,but the dealer told me due to the a/c only 3 could be installed, I'm not sure if weight or space was the problem. I need space for 4 bikes. I have seen 4 bikes on Colemans with a/c before, is it because of the roof sag problem? Thanks again GREAT SITE
