Yes, I ordered an Essex 26 April, and still have not heard when to expect it. Last time I bought one('06), it took 10 weeks. Either business is good, or production is slow.

It's the latter. I just left Newmar and several people had stopped in to see their coach being built. The coaches were not being built when promised.

Of those 17 weeks, the entire plant has been closed for 4 weeks. The rest have been short weeks. The number I heard was 4-5 coaches a day 4 days a week.

Hey Nathan,
Did they get your service taken care of?
More importantly were they able to change the crawl space on the new one? Is there a new coach in your future?
We are headed back to Nappanee for a Monday appt to finish up our list.
Enjoy your travels.
Steve

They are not interested in droping the loft in the Allstar 4159 so we are going to have Carlyle Lehman build a third bunk mod in our current coach. We are also getting a new flooring installed throughout. We just decided that we like the floorplan and will invest in some mods.

Hi! You can call your dealer and get your coach number. With your coach number, either your dealer or Newmar will tell you, the exact offline date. You should not have to wonder what's going on. let us know how you make out. Good Luck! paul

Thank you for the advice. I have known the coach number(800861) for a few months. Both the Dealer and Ken Williamson have given me dates, on several occasions, and not always the same. I wait!

Paul, Not long now. You must be getting excited now. What color name is it? I'm hoping Rick can send me a photo.

One of the things I like most about this site: the people with the most to say, invariably say it in the wrong place.
