Chassis

We are going to purchase a new rv, Newmar. Question is, Spartan or Freightliner chassis?

    I was in love with entegra when it hit the market but the constant problems they seem to have turned me off now I think my next unit will be newmar with sparton chassis

  • Maybe a better question is why buy new?

    Personally, I'd let someone else take the initial depreciation hit and apply the savings towards a comprehensive service plan and put the rest of the savings in an account for upgrades, maintenance and repairs (deductibles).
