Thinking about buying a 2005 KS with a Spartan chassis and 330HP Cummins engine.

Pros & Cons?

Welcome TechWriter to the Newmar forum & irv2.
Here is a 2005 3909 which was popular during that time period.
There is only two recalls for that year which the previous owner might have taken care of.
I'm partial to Newmar because of the factory personal and the well built coach's I have owned.
Have owned others but they are no comparison.
Hope you find what you like there are some good bargains out there.

I ordered my Kountry Star in 2005.I made some changes without any problems from the factory. I owned 2 other brands of motorhomes & Newmar is far superior in quality & customer support.I currently have 32000 miles with only minor repairs needed. If the floor plan is right for You,& the price is right, I wouldnt hesitate to purchase if I were You.

Not sure if our '04 KSDP, Freightliner/Cat qualifies me to comment so FWIW: Newmar quality is outstanding, fit and finish is excellent, factory support both parts and technical advice are exceptional.
We are happy we purchased a Newmar Product...........Just IOHOs
