    When you read Newmar owner's forums, most problems people are having are on older units. Many people praise Newmar's commitment to helping on units well outside of the warranty. One area could improve. That is communication and that is a Winnebago strength. Winnebago didn't have anything in the $500K to $1M market and Newmar's top quality has translated into one of the fastest growing making it a good fit for Winnebago.

    Go to Phoenix cruiser. They are close. They sold too. We own one. Full time is tight. We are thinking of the 33BR Tiffin. May have to wait for a used one. They want a lot of money. As you may no I had to retire early cause of liver transplant. 10 yrs ago. I am 65 now. I am very in happy about Newmar selling out. Jayco sold out the same time o bought one. It had to be rebuilt. We lost 20 Grand camped twice. Slide broke( they forgot to put rollers under it??? Put fiberglass backing over a screw half way in. All the screws were to small. Had to replace. It was a mess. They had the wires to generator mixed up, caught them on fire. Sold with dead batteries. More .... never again. We just were in a dealer in Oregon , great salespeople bad coach. Bay leaked water, steps going into rig , the plastic paper they glue on the sides was completely falling off. ( bad glue?) took for test drive , had to turn around . Main slide would not go in. Not me I been stuck before. I have no idea what to do. Staying with very small Phoenix cruiser. It’s solid.... do not know about the new owners. Newmar for me is out. Ken and Jane 🚎🚎

    "They all have problems", even though I know Andrew wasn't specifically saying all Newmar Coaches have problems it certainly appears they do. I have now seen horror story after horror story about Newmar more so than any other company IMHO. It's great that they are super nice and eventually fix all the problems but I have to ask why in the hell are all these units getting to the end users with so many issues? I have definitely taken Newmar off my short list for coaches I'd like to own and someday will...

    Andrew ...hey bro...whats the music at the beginig?? Cool selection of music .....
    Despite that i like Newmar especially the Kingaire ... yet I am not sure about the take over by Winabego and its side effects .... and the Grand Design argument is also right .... we will have to wait and see....
    As for the quality issues ... I dont know why people assume that the higher end coaches are problem free ....all RVs have issues even Marathon, Newmar, Librety, and Newell..... the real difference is in the service levels and the people who are running the show....
    As for the donughts ... it is a proven sales tactic ... I walk into my meetings with 3 dozens of dunken or crispy and you can imagine that I walk out with a contract in my hand :)... even in the middle east .... Donughts are magic man ...pure magic :)

    Been to been to Amish acres. as well. There is something very special and the Amish and Newmar as well. Just saw some of the Tiffins at the Hershey show last week. Nice coaches and after the news on Monday thought about a Tiffin. Upon reflection though, I will be sticking with the Newmar family and the Amish all day long:) Looking forward to your review of the Essex. Btw, how is that water soaked slide floor of your Tiffin Coach doing? Are you getting it fixed or are you going to perhaps buy a Newmar...lol.

    I'm confused...you said you wanted to show us the 30-page list! Without it, I'm pretty baffled of what in the world took up that many pages. I'm going back soon, and have...what I thought...was a long list of 18 items, but their work order turns that into 4 pages. So, I gather that maybe you're saying that Michael's list was maybe 7 times that amount...so over 125 items??? I thought I was picky, and feel guilty for MY list!

    Suggestion for a road trip as you and Michael get ready to head home. Come down to Indianapolis. Take a tour of the Indy motor speedway track and museum. Grabe lunch at WorkingMan's Friend. It's a local restaurant/ bar with great burgers. Becky who owns WorkingMan's cooks the burgers on a flattop that's over a hundred years old. It's a local legend. Enjoy your time here in Indiana.

Michael already has that coach and stacker trailer in Wisconsin and I will be hanging out in the Elkhart area for a couple days. if I get some time, I may head through Ohio and we'll keep that in mind if I make it to Indianapolis. I always appreciate tips like that for the best spots. I have definitely taken a mental note and will make sure I make that stop when in Indianapolis 😎

    All coaches have problems,nobody builds the perfect coach,granted some are much better than most ! I think the speed at witch they build them is part of the problem. Along with the lack of good quality control! These things need to be completely tested before they roll out the door!! It’s sad when you spend that kind of money for these and things don’t work right and you have to go to battle with the company to get it fixed !!
