2018 MADP 4531 build

Today our Coach hit the Main Assembly building and Ashley sent us a few pics. It started last Friday in the Chassis plant. It amazes me how much they can accomplish in a few short days. Ashley says she will send more tomorrow and the finals will be 7/10 & 11 after the July 4th break. Hopefully these pics upload correctly.

Build Specs:
2018 MA 4531
Spartan Chassis
Niagra Ext/Interior with a few interior changes

Looks like its moving into insulation phase save pictures and note the metal studs 16" on center and special metal plates in bathroom if you ever want to mount something to walls when you might do some MOD's a few months from now.

We do wish we could have been there for the build, but timing wasn't on our side. Tomorrow is my wife last day of work and tonight was the Changing of Command ceremony for her agency. I'll have to make do with the pictures.

So cool to see the build in this stage as I am always wondering how it put together. Congrats on the new coach. Who is your salesperson?

We didn't receive any pictures from yesterday, but I received these this morning. Since I've not been on the tour I'm not exactly sure what we missed in pictures from yesterday.

I think it is soooo cool that they print out the clients photos and attach it to the coach during the build. For the majority of us buying something like this is a life event. It isn't like just buying another car. To personalize it so the folks building it see who it is for . . . just seems like it might add some motivation. It would for me. You're not just a faceless number some place.

Tom,

I thought that was way cool of Newmar as well when my dealer asked me for a picture of us. Really gives a connection for the folks who ordered the coach, would have been great to be there as well to see it built but these will have to do.

CS let me know we actually didn't miss anything as these pictures were from yesterday. Today production didn't do work other than inventory prior to the 4th shutdown. Next set coming the 10th.

Today we received another set of pictures of our coach during its production. We didn't get any yesterday so this set shows yesterday and todays progress. Its scheduled to be finished tomorrow and headed to paint.
