New 179 - Slide out question

Just joined the group and have already learned a lot from reading the posts. We decided to sell our Trailmanor 2720 and we've had our 179 for a week. Love it so far. I'm wondering if others with a slide out can tell me if the frame around the slide out on the inside of the camper goes back flush to the wall. We have the wood trim around it. I've noticed in photos that it used to be a puffy fabric type of trim.

When opening the slide, it stops about 3/4 to 1 inch from the wall. Theres a rubber gasket all along the top that seems to stop it from fitting flush. I haven't called the dealer yet. Was just going to stop in next week when going by, but I'd thought I'd ask here. I can post a photo if my explanation is not clear enough.
Thanks.

Thanks!
The Trailmanor was our 3rd camper. We bought a 17ft Burro in 1999. The reason we got the 2720 TM (in 2008) was mostly because I was doing craft fairs around the state and I wanted a larger camper that I could sit in at night and sew or make other stuff and my husband could have his easy chair. We liked it, never had a problem with it. It was fun. But now being retired, I just want to have a camper we can jump in, take off, with very little setup/takedown. We actually drove from Maine to Arizona and back last year and we left the TM home and took the old Burro. So, I guess the r-pod is really an upgrade from the Burro. Lots more options and space.

I have a 4 week old 179 and my slide sets the same as you describe.

When we were looking at Rpods every model I was inside of, set the same way.

Hi Ted & Mary 
 

Thanks everyone. I won't worry about it for now.  Ted thinks it supposed to be like that. We've had the slide out for 3 days of rain and it's fine. You really only notice the gap when  you sit on the bed. Its an odd angle. No one posts photos from over there toward the kitchen.
