As alluded by @TJ&LadyDi response above, this is always an entertaining and "passionate" discussion on any RV site. Ford vs. Chevy, whatever you want to name it. Newmar specs the chassis for the coach and the chassis vendor builds to those specs. You'll have to do your own research and be careful of the "confirmation bias" which is going to be the bias as to what the author of the opinion owns. Plenty of these discussions out there, it's one we all dread per above, I hope you can find the info you need to make your decision and enjoy your coach to the fullest.

The best thing to do, IMO, is take the Dutch Star brochure and compare the specs chassis to chassis. You’ll see most of the differences. Also, look at the Spartan and Freightliner websites to determine how many service centers for each and where. IMO, there is no perfect decision to be made on this issue. They both make good products to Newmar’s specs.

Ditto all said above. Choose one or the other. The floor plan matters way more.

Consider warranty terms offered on both chassis.
