I write this thread to see just how many Newmar owners are enjoying the rewards of a finely crafted coach. My MADP is a 2002 4095. I have taken care to perform all the semi annual and annual maintenance and have had no major problems. Everything is still original (except the sound and tv) and it has been continuously lived in for 17 years.

Good to hear! We've had our 2018 MADP since last June and like it very much. I hope ours holds up every bit as well as yours has.

Are just celebrating our first year in our 2014 MADP. Absolutely love it. The quality is exceptional.

We purchased our '17 MA last May and moved into it this May 1st to start full timing. We love the coach as the floorplan is great. The power seems sufficient and the ride is wonderful. I don't think you could go wrong with either a MA or a LA.

Any observations if the quality changes across the Newmar product line and / or model years? Really speaking of assembly quality as certainly the component / cabinetry will change from low to high end models.

I have only had one Newmar experience. The quality is certainly better than the Bounder. But the price point was too (when new).

We have been very happy with our 2004 MADP 4016. Great build quality that has held up through the years and I really love the 4016 floorplan. I always seem to have a current project ongoing, but they are always elective upgrades. We have had no problems that required paying someone else to work on our coach. Since we full-time and I do not have a place to do the scheduled chassis fluid changes, I do pay someone to do that. We truly do feel after getting our Mountain Aire that we bought our last coach first.

We purchased our new to us 2009 Essex apr. 3 years ago and have logged 20k miles since. A few little surprises but the quality of Newmar is great. We don't full time but pretty darn close. We are in the process of some remodeling, removed the small sofa, building a cabinet with TV lift and replaced the larger sofa with two recliners. Not sure it will be our last coach but for now it works great for us.
Happy Trails

Our 2000 Mountain Aire 3559 (Gas) coach has 55k miles and no issues.
It was in-laws coach and sat for about 5 years until we stared using it 7 years ago.
New TV and all else is original.
Looking to upgrade to a 4081 Dutch Star this year though.
