DW and I are heading up to Newmar the end of next week to pick up/pdi our new 2016 DS 4018 on 8/17. I can't wait to see it in person as I did not have an opportunity to see it being built. In the meantime, Devon Miller sent me these three pictures of our MH.

Mike,
We chose the same exterior color in our 4018. We saw other units with the Cannes exterior during the factory tours we took the last week in July. They really look good. We chose the Prism interior except we changed all of the fabrics to Mountaine Aire fabrics (pillows, window valances, dinette chairs and bedspread).

I can imagine how excited you are to take delivery because Angel and I share in that excitement in waiting for our Factory Delivery starting 9/14. Any comments or recommendations you have after your delivery would be appreciated.

Allen

Newmarpusher, the Ventana 4037 is also a very nice DP. Did you stay with the opposing couch layout or choose the optional fireplace/TV desk? A couple years ago when we were making a final decision on Manufacturer/Model it was a Ventana that sold us on Newmar.

Allen,

We went with the Cordova interior but DW changed out the solid surfaces to one from the Mountain Aire. She also decided she liked the headboard from the London Aire better so we had that switched out as well. Love the fact that Newmar lets us tweak these motorhomes as we and many others have done.

I will try to come back here and post my impressions of the delivery, as well as, my thoughts on the new features for 2016. Expect a lot of "Ooh's", "Aah's", and "Wow!".

Mike,

Congrats on your new coach. It looks fantastic and I know you are excited. I'm glad you finally got some pics. We drove to all the lots where customer service said it should be but just couldn't find it. It must have been inside being prepped for delivery. I will send you a PM and maybe you could try to find our Ventana when you get there. Time permitting of course as you will be busy! It should be out of paint by then and stored somewhere till we take delivery. It would be great to see it once they paint it. It's killing us waiting till October 12th.

Great color by the way!

Safe Travels

Steve

Steve,

I would be more than happy to track down your Ventana and take a few pictures.

We have the door side couch/sleeper/televator and the street side dual recliners. We went back and forth between that and the door side L-sofa and the street side recliner/fireplace TV. It's awesome that Newmar has so many variations on every floor plan.

Class of 2016 Newmar Deliveries

Perhaps as we order our new 2016 Newmar's we would like to share the dream ordered. A way for us to share our experiences ordering, awaiting production, delivery and pictures.

We can share things like selling dealer, exterior and interior choices, options, special ordered items, factory or dealer delivery, etc.

We yesterday finalized our 2016 Dutch Star 4369 order through Tom Lindstrom RV. Received many quotes from dealers around the country with numbers all over the place. We had 3 dealers that were serious about making a sell and worked hard for it. The other two were Midway RV and Coachlight RV.

What we ordered.
Cannes Exterior
Cordova Interior
Manhattan Maple Cabinets
3 AC's with EMS and 10K Genset
Electric Radiant Heated Floors
Washer and Dryer
All Elect. w/Induction Cooktop
GE Advantium Convection Oven
Exterior Dometic 2.8 Freezer
Navigation
Exterior TV
Wineguard Open Face Dish
Wineguard Rayzar Auto TV Ant.
Combo Desk/Dinette
Fold & Tumble Sofa w/Two Recliners
Polished Counter Top's
Wallboard from Mtn. Aire
Headboard from Mtn. Aire
Undermount double sink
Heated Seats
Door side slideouts LED's
Pwr Rewind Elect and Water Reels
Two storage Trays w/one pass through
Stainless Trim Kit /Chrome Auto Door Locks
Fold Down Shower Seat
Two window awnings
Two Girard Nova side awnings

Dealer Delivery


This is our dream coach and hopefully our last after going through 4 MH's over the years. Like everyone that purchases a MH we are very happy and it will be hard waiting for delivery. We like all the floor plans but the one that works best for us is the same as we have in our Ventana, the 4369.

Oh the wait is already getting long.
