Spartan chassis owners, be aware.

[Rollin Ollen]

A YouTube blogger fanning her flames of click-bait may not be the best source of information...and seldom is. I'm in favor of waiting to see how this actually plays out, whether through a settlement, a court case, or just an objective reporting of the facts. Let's stay tuned.

Especially when she is eagerly selling a book about which RV's to buy and which not! Great advertising for her.

Don’t confuse this issue with the YouTube and other sources that are monetizing the news.

Also don’t confuse this issue with the lawsuit and the border.

Neither of those affect the majority of the Spartan owners.

We are all affected by the lack of a vin.

There is nothing to discus, the legislation is clear. The general practice is clear.

Casey removed his statements after I pointed out the civil and personally risks he was at for making those statements.

This is not opinion. It’s fact.

I cannot understand it for you, but I can certainly point you to the source as I have done, and not one single person has been able to cite a higher authority or alternative scenario that has fact behind it. Not even Newmar.

Newmar’s claim that a label is applied inside has nothing to do with Spartan, as that chassis is delivered in a raw frame and must have the permanent tag. There is no alternative.

This is something that I am considering riveting to both sides of the chassis.

I too have done something similar but I used one that was just VIN and no other data. I do not want to represent it as an OEM tag, but rather as an inventory tag for maintenance purposes.

There is a report on the other place that an owner who has an Essex on order reached out to NIrVC.

I will paste the post here as a quote.

NIRVC/Newmar VIN

---

I understand that a few threads have closed on this topic, but I think it's important to relay my situation. I reached out to my salesperson and the owner of NIRVC about my concerns after watching the Liz Amazing video. I heard back from Mr Davis, the owner of NIRVC yesterday to inform me that he has reached out to both Spartan as well as Newmar and since he will be the owner of the new Essex before me, he will not accept a non compliant coach and insists that the 17 digit VIN be either stamped on the chassis and/or a permanent plate be attached.
This is not the first time this company has gone to bat for me and why I support them, because they support their customers.

Good point, just the VIN serves the purpose of VIN on frame without creating any other questions.

We need Bill to come over here.

Luckily We live in a sanctuary state, no proof of registration needed everything welcome

Tongue In Cheek, all illegally docunted aliens have refuge in Illinoisanze, so, my newmar is illegally documented, (BAD JOKE)
