OK, I found a sweet 2002 with 21K miles, 300 Cummins. What I am leading up to is there anything that I should pay special attention to when I go to re-inspect it? Has a PowerTech Genny 8.0 which I'm not familiar with. Is powertech reliable? Talked to the owner and he stated that he has never had a problem with it. Who services this brand?

Derek, glad to see your staying in the Newmar family. The GEN if it has good time hours on it should pose no problem, on your return check out, start it up an check it with ac's, micro, tv's, an anything else for a load see how it responds to the load. Is it diesel or Lp GEN?
Someone will respond for anything else. Good luck on what ever you deside. "007"

Diesel genny 87 hrs. Everything ran well off genny when tried it first time but will definately do it overagain. Yes I was glad to stay in the Newmar family myself. Just had a hard time finding a coach for "us". It doespay to shop around and waite for the coach that you want.

OK, went and checked it over real good took me about 3 hours of prodding crawling through, under, over ect. Coach was just about perfect just a couple of minor items to be addressed. Will pick it up Friday afternoon. Thanks to all who responded to my questions and took there time. I know there will be many more that will need being answered or clarified.

CONGRATULATIONS, DEREK & AUDI!!!

We can hardly wait to see it - we're sure its an awesome coach. And it won't take you five tries to back it in as the couple coming in next to us is now doing with their fifth wheel. Of course, never saw you need five tries with your 5ver either. See you in October.

Derek,
That button is for the lumbar. You can hear mine operating when it is pushed.
