Anyone have an Dynamax Isata 5 with Cummins?

This may be my next coach. Would love to hear owner feedback

Just purchased one Tuesday. Can't wait to use it! Did a test run of its towing with my buddies enclosed with a Camaro in it and was really impressed.

I've had mine a year today. We've put 18000 miles on it and love it. We've not had a single problem with it, it's getting about 11 mpg and can go up any hill that we've come across on the east coast. Just getting set up to tow my Ford F-150 and then we'll be ready to go. Any other questions, you can pm me.

Thanks for the reports. The Isata 5 just keeps coming around as the one I should get and your positive reports help.

Please touch base in this thread with any updates, comments, issues you may have from here.

Thanks!!

One other thing, would you mind saying what you paid or maybe what % off retail you got and where you bought your unit. It would help me a lot.

Did a 24 hour run today to get a trailer. Put 950 miles from Richmond VA to Grove City OH. Rig did great on the WVA mountains with, and without the trailer. Fuel mileage isn't bad at 70 and below, but falls off it you're rolling coal. Haha.

Bought mine at Dylans RV in NJ, and paid $132k.

Grove City!

That's where I had the wheelchair lift installed for my mom in my HR Endeavor. Also had them do some paint work and minor repairs.

My coach in just north of Grove City at the Erie shore line.

Any more thoughts on the Isata 5? We're going to look at one tomorrow.

There isn't much competition out there for a diesel C that can tow 10,000#. Not that I need that much, but want more than 5000.
