HI Perick:
The answer to your question is yes and no. The VIN #, chassis # and the like are when the chassis is built, be it Ford or Chevy. THEN the coach is put on the chassis. When the coach is finished, that is the MODEL year. So if the chassis was built in 2007 and the coach was finished up in 2008, then yes, it is a 2008 MH, but the chassis was built in 2007 and must be registered as such.. Hope this helps. Same thing happened to me. I did inquire about it and did the research to verify. Like you, I thought, "You Sumbeaches!", but after research, all is well.

Thank you for that reply Allen. Reading out here I have seen mention about the possible date differences between the chassis and coach, but since this one is 04/07 for the chassis and 05/07 for the coach, that lead me to think that neither would have sat around for 6 months before being completed.
Honestly, biggest thing that is driving me nuts now is the fact the hitch is a 3500lb hitch and not the 5000lb hitch the 2008 models have. That's ticking me off the most, the fact we bought the 2008 over the 2007 because we wanted the hitch and to be a year newer.
