Defects With a New Coach

[Iron Man]

I have found that our old dealer (now closed) drug their feet on getting your coach back to you and when they did it usually was not fixed. Even though it was a 900 mile trip we made an annual trip to the factory for service. Incuding driving time it was quicker than the sun treatment by the dealer.

Our 08 Bay Star 2901 had Zero defects.... Sofar only the GEN had 2 problems.

With about 1 year to get the bugs out of a new coach, why would we want to buy a new one? Not only are you depreciating the most the first year, you are having to be a beta test for the manufacturer? No thanks!

You are absolutly correct. We are kicking out tails all over the place for buying new. The only advantage of a new coach is possibly ease of financing, and since we were paying cash we did not need that benefit. Within two years of our purchase we happened upon several one to three year old coaches that would have been much better buys, were better equipped, with very low mileage, and had already been back through the factory warranty process to get the rats out of thier systems. Hind site ya'll -- hind site.
