Great place and nice bus plus the light color is great for the hot sunny days and hiding the road grime.

Can anyone touch on the Eplex system in this Coach. Good/bad? Something to stay away from? K-2 Chassis?

E-plex is supported, but the parts are IMHO quite expensive. I have a 2007 Essex with Eplex and have repaired the automatic generator function this year.
Test all functions before purchasing the RV.

After doing a lot of reading on here this morning, I am thinking I don't want a Coach with the eplex system.........was 2011 the last year Newmar used it? and I am assuming this Coach has it?

Yes John, I also really liked the interior layout and liked even more the Custom exterior color's! But the Eplex is a downfall for me........

Dave, I seem to remember reading about someone working with SilverLeaf to replace a dead EPlex system. Maybe you could factor that cost into an offer. It is definitely a beautiful coach.

Hello Bill! I am not sure that I want to buy a Coach, then have to go to Sliverleaf and have this done right off the bat. Just like wanting a big ISX engine and having it rebuilt with new part's before it comes un glued, I have shyed away from the big Cummins of that era. Through my search's in the year's I am interested in, something always slows me down in my research.
It will come, time is on my side and I am glad my Mountain Aire has been absolutely Bullet Proof..........hard to let go of that.

Can’t say I disagree. Patience is key and you have a fantastic coach already.
See you out there on the road sometime.
