Look forward towards seeing the postings. We have a 08 SuperNova 6372. Fixes & areas we?ve addressed include:

1. Added Superride 800 series air suspension system from American Carrier Equipment. This greatly improved the ride and comfort of the rig.
2. Like Georunner, updated the pantry. Replaced the plastic shelf brackets with metal brackets and built new shelves that fit snugger.
3. Upgraded and replaced the mattresses for the king bed and pullout couch.
4. Ongoing problem? After two years & numerous visits to the dealer ? one of our basement storage compartments continues to flood during rain. The rubber seal/gasket has been replaced. We suspect the door is slightly warped & preventing a tight seal.
5. During the first year, the leveling system was probably our biggest pain. System errors & jacks not retracting. Most of the jacks were replaced and everything is working now.
6. Got tired of caulking and fighting leaks along the cab and body seam. Applied EternaBond RV tape and haven?t had anymore leaks. Love EternaBond!
7. Got nervous when we noticed that the large wall slide had gap when retracted. Minor adjustment from dealer fixed gap. I didn?t realize the slides needed periodic adjusting.
8. We also had rubbing from the metal brackets holding the water tank. Applied silicon between the tank and brackets and haven?t had anymore wearing.

We?re really happy with International and to date we?ve never had any problems with the chassis on the SuperNova. We love our SuperNova. It?s not perfect but still makes us smile when we get to use it.
