2011 Mountain Aire DP, K2?

So if a 2011 is on Spartan is the frame a Mountain Master or K2?

The original invoice has a $15400 deduction for Spartan 425 43M option...
Freightliner that much more??

It does not have the front cap with the recessed wipers (if that's any indication)...

It should be a MMGT based on the published numbers.

FL chassis with 450 HP ISL with 1250 torque. Have meet MA owners at Lake Tahoe who said they were down to 25 MPH on some of the grades. A couple thousand pounds heavier then a DS with same power. In 2015 changed engine to 500 ISX with 1645 torque. Might not work well here on the west coast.

Most are Freightliner Tom, except I have the original dealer invoice for this unit and it says 'Spartan Chassis 425HP 43M' with a minus $15,400 (reduction) in the MSRP...

I don't dislike Freight but have enjoyed the Spartan I drive and the service received from the Techs at the factory. Also, was just wondering why they went to K2 in 07,08 and 09 an then back to a MMGT??

I don't remember the year but there was a few Newmars built without Def system for the exhaust system and there was a discount on the MSPR of the coach to reflect it. I think Spartan bought all the Cummins non def engines they could and used them on chassis until the engines were gone.

The MA in 2011 that I have seen all had had the same chassis they were using for Essex except had the 450 ISL with 1250 torque. Did have some even with 365 front tire. I think the real issue is that to the best of my knowledge they all had ISL. In 07 thru 09 MA were almost like Essex except had the 450 HP ISM on Spartan chassis with 1550 torque. These were really good coaches both engine and chassis with a Spartan.
