As noted in a separate thread, my Dutch Star is waiting until tomorrow for a fan clutch. But, what a pleasurable trip to Las Vegas and back. This is my first Newmar. My first class A was a Georgetown g7. We made the same trip last year in it. After driving a full day in the g7 I was exhausted. A full day in the Star, I was ready for another day of driving. The air ride and comfort drive was amazing. The horsepower is only 25 more, but I think I just had a few pulls where I slowed down th less than 65 with the cruise set at 71. It cost a good bit to do the trade, but it was worth it.
