Is there a list of the Newmar dealers that also offer both Freightliner and Spartan certified services? NIRVC is one dealer chain that makes this claim. Are there others? If so is there a complete list anywhere?
With my first Newmar I had several malfunctions where it was not clear whether the...
Excellent thread over on the "other" forum by @Snacktime detailing the anatomy of the full wall hydraulic slides used on the New Aire and other Newmar models.
Here is the thread. If anyone knows @Snacktime please encourage him to join us here. Great thread content creators, like @Snacktime, are...
Only costs $500 for a refundable position to join this group. They appear to have some credible VC funding to make this thing more than a dream. Fun to watch.
Anyone care to share actual experience with the discount to list price when placing an order for a Newmar DP. Historically I have seen it in the 20% to 30% range. Just curious given the current slow down in sales about how motivated dealers are to cut price on a custom order.
I just took delivery of a 2021 Ford F-150 Hybrid. It is a Platinum model with most every option available including a revolutionary new innovation that may fundamentally change the RV industry: an onboard 7.2kw generator. This is not a typical generator. This generator is driven from the hybrid...
Just returned from an extended trip that included a visit to Yellowstone National Park. It is no longer a national park, it is a zoo. What a mess. Many closures with COVID as an excuse and construction road delays that in some cases have been going on for years. Visits are 10% higher than record...
I took delivery of one of the first Newmar New Aire's in October of 2017. It took me until the Spring of 2018 to "finish" the coach. I learned a lot in the Winter of 2017/2018. Biggest lesson, they sure don't make these coaches like airplanes. In any event by the 2018 Summer season I had a coach...
In the continuing game of hiding production dates on BlueDef boxes they changed the date codes again. BlueDef and dealers do not want you to know if you are buying old DEF so they scramble the production date codes. Some time in the last few months it changed again. So far I cannot find a code...
I have seen many posts over on iRV2 about wandering tank readings (water, gray and black). Never paid much attention since miner were working. Well now my black tank is wandering all over the place (while empty). I have gone through all the rituals of cleaning and flushing with no change.
I am...
The Xite HD 360 Camera system is $3,270 option on some Newmar models including the New Aire. The system consists of 4 HD cameras (front, R/L side and rear) providing a full 360 degree view around the coach. The system is integrated into the Xite XSG3 infotainment system. As integrated into the...
Hydraloop water recycling system was just voted "best of best" at CES 2020. Unfortunately, they don't make a product with a good form factor for high end motor homes yet, but it has to be coming. With this technology large water and grey tanks become obsolete. Water use is reduced by 85%. Future...
I have posted frequently about the disruptive technology coming very soon to deliver internet data services to homes and mobile platforms. Very soon (we hope) dealing with Verizon and ATT using what is now very dated cellular technology will be a distant nightmare.
Elon Musk's SpaceX has just...
Just upgraded my TOAD to a 2020 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. JL chassis is a big upgrade over the JK that I had on my last Wrangler.
First job was to install a new BlueOx baseplate. I bought a Blue Ox BX1139 base plate from Amazon along with a Blue Ox BX8848 diode taillight kit. To finish the install...
The MyRozie FTP Telematics Gateway appears to be down. My coach stopped reporting. I tried to manually log on to the FTP server ftp://www.myrozie.com:8080 and it won't connect. HTTP service is up as I can see the status screen with "No Data" but I can't get to the FTP server. Can someone check...
