Well, I can tell you nothing about it. But I can tell you that that is the color combination inside that we have and we really like it !!! It is the darkest cherry, and the lightest leather (pleather sp?) and it looks beautiful. Different outside but overall a beautiful coach. Since it is in Nacadoches, TX, I would bet that it was traded in on a new Foretravel coach, which is made in Nacadoches. Maybe someone on here can tell you directly about the coach. There is a fellow on here who recently traded in his Anthem for I think a Foretravel..... but that is memory.

With just over 3,000 miles, then take off your standard delivery miles which may average out between 800-1300, this puppy wasn't used. We always like a kitchen on the ODS side (as Entegra would say)

I talked to MOT and Entegra yesterday. Apparently someone from the Dallas area bought it from MHSRV, had it for a month or so and it needed warranty work. He took it back to MHSRV and found out they don't do service or warranty work. He got mad, took it to a different dealer and traded it on a new Wini. MOT then bought the trade.

According to Entegra it went into service (I think they said) 6/15 and the warranty work was a hydraulic leak that was fixed. Coach had 2600 miles when traded and MOT took it to Breckenridge for a show. That is all.

We loved the coach, BUT we couldn't work a deal with out Eagle as a trade. So it sits and we drive happily away.

Well, 1300 miles of that odometer reading were put on there simply delivering it from Middlebury to MHSRV in Alvarez.... same trip my coach made.

Wow...... I thought I was comfortable, but it is hard to imagine turning in my coach (and I assuming taking a huge financial "hit") on my zero new miles coach just because there was a problem with the hydraulics..... if I used that yardstick, I would have traded in my coach 10 to 15 times already. Must be nice to be able to take a $50,000 loss in a couple of weeks and blow right past it. Hope that Winnie is a dream...

I don't get it either Gary

- surprised MHSRV will not do warranty work on a new coach, purchased from them? Maybe the hydraulics is out of their scope and maybe should have gone to a Spartan shop, which I have to say there is not much choice around DFW for one. Still surprised MHSRV would not help get this corrected - My first coach had a problem with the Gen, and they took it to a Onan shop and had it fixed.

May be more to the story, .......just sayin.

I think there is more to the story. MHS sent my coach over to Industrial Power in Ft Worth. They are authorizes Spartan and Cummings service center. MHS got my warranty items taken care. They were just slow in getting it done.

Gary.Jones · 08-06-2016, 07:01 AM

My experience with Industrial Power also. However, in their defense, the real problem was that Cummins and Spartan had no idea of how to cure my exhaust problem or even what was producing the problem, and had to have the techs at Industrial Power do a gazillion checks and a bunch of calls with Cummins techs in order to figure out the problem.

I am surprised that MHS said they would do no repairs.... they did repairs during my purchase, they just werent very good at it. There have been reports that they are building a new set of buildings and will begin to become a competent repair shop and not just a sales showroom. I dont think they are there yet, but that is the story. Now, in DFW area, there are only 2 certified Cummins/Spartan shops (Industrial Power, and Holt Equipment).
