Newbies here. Shopping for older DP and found a 2005 Newmar Mountain Aire 4303 from a private owner. The asking is 110 and looking in Blue book (NADA) the avg retail is 76,250 with low retail 63,300. The comparative 2005 Dutch Star average retail is 95250 and low retail 79050, the new cost in 2005 for DS was 296008 while the 2005 new retail price for the MA was 336440. I'm hoping for some advice from you all on why this would be. We thought the MA was a more expensive rig in the Newmar hierarchy and in 2005 it cost more. Is there something we are missing? The rig is in great condition, well maintained with 68,000 miles. Thank you for your insights.
