New to Newmar with 2011 Essex

Great info already received from the forum and thanks to all. We picked up last week a (new to us) 2011 Essex. Previous coach was an 2008 American Eagle and we are now very excited to join the Newmar family. Within 24 hours of picking her up we were camped on the Guadalupe River for a 5 day shakedown cruise. Thanks in advance to all of the contributors and I know there will be questions as we figure out the coach. If I can post the photos, the rear view is NOT the coach laying on its side -- just turn your head Can't wait to start rolling on the miles -- Safe travels to all --

Once you get over the learning curve you'll really enjoy the Newmar. We should have bought another rather than going to a CC.

Beautiful! Would love to see some interior pictures as well (either direction will work). Never looked at an Essex before. Enjoy.

Wow! That's a great looking coach. Did you purchase it somewhere in the Central Texas area?

Yes, we purchased this at Legacy Coach in Rockwall, TX ('burb east of Dallas). Owner is Brandon, nice guy, honest & knowledgeable. Small 3-person operation & most of their biz is pre-owned Prevost rigs, but they have others as well. Tried to post a link so darcan is able to see the interior photos, but their website was down this morning. On their site, if you click on "Inventory - Sold" - there will be full pics of our rig. I'll also take some interior shots the next time we are out, but with other upcoming travel it looks like it will be the week of Thanksgiving when we'll be camping for 5 - 6 days. Regards --
