Bummer. I didn’t see that one. Was just stopping in for goodies on the way to holly acres. So hard not to look at these gorgeous machines.

Keep the Ventana 3715 floorplan for 2019 but improve the chassis with 305/70 or 305/80 tires on 9" wheels like the NADP and 37' DSDP. Then improve the front axle to independent with 60 degree wheel cut and 15,200 weight rating. For safety, increase the brake drums from 7" to 8.62" like the NADP and 37' DSDP because the ISP has much less engine braking.
Stronger axles, better tire patch and bigger brakes will make the Ventana 3715 carry weight and stop as well and as safely as the similar weight NADP and 37' DSDP.

I don't think this is secret stuff....I texted my dealer yesterday to congratulate him on being a top ten dealer again. He said he had to order 100 motor homes at the dealer meeting to get his allotment for the year. Obviously, they'll come in throughout the year. I asked how would you special order one if I wanted it. He said he would take one that is in the order line up and make the changes.
He said he bought the DS at the dealer show and should have it in a few weeks. I hope to go see it before it's gone.

Really want a new one, since the roof façade came out after mine, but holding out for an MA, but unless some unexpected money comes in, I don't want to extend myself that far.

Secret in the sense that Newmar doesn't want anything like colors, new options, etc. to be released before May 11th. We already know, based on what was posted in the thread that Newmar objected to and contacted the site admins about requesting no more information be published and even going so far as to ask the admins to tell us not to contact dealers about '19 models before May 11th (pretty silly for them to make that request, but obviously they are trying to keep info bottled up until then).
