My two cents is that I think both Newmar and Entegra make great coaches. In fact, when I was deciding what to get, a Mountain Aire or London Aire would have been my runner up if I had not gone with Entegra. I think you would probably be thrilled with either one.
For my part, I have not regretted my decision to go with Cornerstone. It's a beautiful, well-made coach, and it's hard to beat Entegra's customer service!

I'm sure they build a great coach and sure they will make it right after owner moves in to the shop where repairs are being made to demand such, but I read the blog with the leaking water fitting that flooded the coach with 50 gal of water and the comments from the factory early in the process definitely made my decision that I could not ever work with such a group on a coach. I went through a similar incident with a large boat years back and the similar attitude of the mfg made me eventually very ill physically as I could not comprehend such and attitude with a mfg issue. Definitely not the way I've sun my business for 31 years. It's a good read that should not be missed. Tommy

Are you folks all at Pelican Lake for the winter? We recently bought a lot at Naples Motorcoach Resort "just down Collier Blvd" from you - have to have a "club" meeting this winter.

I do not think a 2 year warranty is in the cards for Newmar, they had a 2 year warranty several years ago and they made the decision to drop it and go with 1 year.

That thread also turned me away from Newmar. Newmar hesitated too long to do the right thing. I am down to Tiffin and Entegra in my search for a new coach.

We're at Pelican for the winter. We used to stay at Naples Motorcoach Resort, but prefer Pelican.

As most know, I had the delivery from hell with my Entegra. No questions asked, the coach was taken back to the factory at their expense and made right. Entegra flew a factory rep down the next day and the coach was returned. No back and forth.....done. Even with my bad experience, I can't say enough good about the CS.

Newmar had a 3 year warranty around 2003-2005. Then they dropped it back to 1 year.

I had it narrowed down to 3 companies...Tiffin,Newmar and Entegra. I talked to owners of all 3 because I was concerned about customer service when the inevitable happens. I talked to people at the service centers waiting to have their coaches repaired and Entegra won my vote. However Newmar would have been my second choice. I really wanted a Tiffin and came very close to buying a 45LP but in the end just too many unhappy people having to camp in their big service center lot for 3 weeks at a time.
With all that said I believe all 3 are good but to me .........Entegra is the best

We love ours .... good luck with the search. I think they sell before they hit the dealers lots ... so you may have to order one!

You might check MHSRV in Tx or NIRV in Ga last time I looked at their websites they had 44B's in stock.
