Newmar Super Star 4159 or 4059 vs. Renagade Verona LE

[Gelkin]

Looking for some advice. I'm considering purchasing new one of these beautiful rigs and tossed up between
the M2 106 and M2 112.
Towing a jeep. The Newmar is about 6000 lbs heavier and I'm wondering if it struggles a bit uphill towing a vehicle with the smaller 360 hp engine. Interested in thoughts regarding the two as far as reliability issues, build quality etc.
Also, anyone feel that the Verona's ride is really much worse than the Super Star due to not having a full air cab?
Thanks in advance.

As far as the air ride cab goes - we test drove Renegades and Dynamax before we ended up with our Superstar.

The air ride cab makes all the difference in the world from driving comfort.

The longer wheelbase helps while driving as well - feels like it is on rails on the highway.

The turning radius takes a bit to get used to but not bad once you get to know it.

We have the 360 and, pulling our Cherokee, do about 35 a 40 going up a 7% grade. Will not win races but will get there.

As far as reliability etc we have been full time since we picked it up 4 1/2 years ago and had a few things but nothing that has kept us from being in it.

We had it inspected, even though new, and the inspector said Newmar was at the top of the list from their perspective.

Thank you Dennis. I appreciate the feedback.
