Nick, about 9 months ago I sold my 2003 Newmar Kountry Star DP for less than $50K after I had it for sale for 2 years…I had to keep dropping the price….it was a beautiful rig….too bad you weren’t looking then. You should be able to get a comparable rig for that amount or less now.

Nick,

A close read of the Camping World sale says that it is really just a debt transfer as the owner of Affinity, I think, is the purchaser of Camping World. So there is no change in management.

Hi Nick

Newmar and Tiffin are my two top choices. I would really like a Allegro “Bus” if affordable but will probably settle for a Phaeton (used…2005+). A Newmar “Dutch Star” would be my choice there but would again probably settle for a Country Star because of costs. I want a 350 HP+ . What is your third choice????? I’m guessing Winnabago as you seemed to mention in a past post.

Newmar is on my top list also, along with Tifin. Hope you guys get to feeling better, long hours in a booth trying to be friendly when your sick “ain’t” no fun!!

Newmar makes a fine coach. Some of those Newmar owners should be able to steer you toward someone they know who has a coach for sale. I belong to the Foretravel Yahoo Group and these guys (present company excepted) know what is on the market. Now, be prepared. When you announce that you are closing in on a new coach your “financial adviser” will weigh in on the subject.

On other subjects, I hope Terry is on the road to feeling better.
