The production order number is 800875-594. I guess the coach number is 594. Thanks, Paul!

Hi Randy! Tours of the Newmar Factory have been stopped until sometime in Feb. (I forget the date). They are taking an extended holiday break. I went over to see a friend who checked on your coach. It is currently in Paint, as of yesterday. I am going to go over today or tomorrow and try to snag some pics. I wanted to wait until it was out of paint. Paul

Hi Randy! Your coach is in the paint booth today. I will try to grab pics tomorrow after lunch before I leave for N.J. It should be out of the booth in the afternoon. Paul

Hi Randy! I E-Mailed you some pics. Paul

Hi Paul/Randy. Would love to see the pics if possible. We are looking at an 08 and 09 4508. Thanks, Tom

Hi! The pics I took were for Randy. If he wishes to share, that is his call. They will not do you much good as his coach is still under destruction!

Are you out at Camp Newmar now? If not call Ken Williamson in sales and he has tons of good pics he can share. If you are out there, go to sales and there should be some Essex completed floating around that you can see. Paul

Paul, thanks for the response. Our coach is in the caves near KC...60-65 degrees. Outside, 10 degrees and 3-5 inches snow. Three days ago it was 61 and we took a drive to Carthage, MO which is where they have a "used" 08 4508 with 2,600 miles. If we trade up from the 05 4304 we'll probably get something that already exists. Don't have your patience to build. Thanks again. Tom

Tom - I have tons of photos of '08 Essex 4508's that I can email you. Thanks to Paul, I also have pictures of my '09 under construction that I can send too. While I didn't price any used '08 Essex's, I did try to buy a couple of new leftover '08s, but found that I could have a new '09 built for exactly the same $$$. I'm happy to share what I've learned.

I'll shoot you a PM.

Hi Tom! Great floor plan choice. Our current coach and our last one had a rear bath. Works out real nice. Paul

There are only 3 of us in the lot right now and I don't think either of the others are iRV2ers. We're here to get our carpet replaced with tile and a couple of other smaller items. We'll be here at least until Thursday 15 Jan - probably a day longer.

Oh yes, I forgot to mention - there are several inches of white stuff on the ground! And, the weather is really turning brutal next week with HIGHS in the single digits! Brrrrrr! Come with plenty of propane or extra electric heat - and full of fresh water!

We're here this week taking delivery of our Essex. The temps have been near or below zero for the past several nights - quite a test for the coach's heating system. I'm happy to say that the heated floor and Oasis hydronic unit has kept us toasty warm. Currently, there is a Canadian couple taking delivery of a new King Aire painted with the same color scheme we got on our Essex (2008 Essex Bordeaux) and some very nice folks from GA having a few repairs made to their 2007 Essex. One more day and we're headed south to find warmer weather, and at this point, anything above freezing would feel balmy.

congrats Randy glad to hear everything is going well with new coach wishing you a safe trip to warmer weather.

We will be at Camp Newmar around March 16-18 getting some work done by taking advantage of the winter rates. Anyone else planning on being there at that time?
