Any Newmars have 7' headroom. I went to a consignment lot this weekend and realized @ 6'2" - many of the Newmars seemed to have rather low headroom.

It depends on the year.
My '07 Dutch Star has a 7' ceiling.
In the early 2000's Newmar started increasing the interior height.

My 09 Ventana has 7' ceilings, not that I've measured. I'm an inch taller than you and have plenty of headroom.

My 04 dutchstar does not have a 7' ceiling. I'm reminded of this every time I climb aboard!

I hear ya - I have narrowed my search down to used Tiffins and Newmars but the ceiling height is gonna be a big factor for me. Anybody know when the Dutch Star went to higher ceilings (is it a ceiling in a MH??  ) ? Thanks again

Hi Drop In,
For a couple of years (03-05?) Newmar made a Northern Star. It was a DSDP with a high ceiling. Consider looking for a Northern Star.

That sounds a bit too low.
