We had a 2007 NEWMAR Grandstar,3752.Maeaured a little better than 38'.
Had a 330 HP. CUMMINS, WITH A 6 speed Allison. Towed a Honda CRV.
Unit worked well .had ample power. The thing I found that it was a gas frame.
No airbags ,course they can be added. Had problems with of all things the windshield
Wipers. Freightliner or the NEWMAR dealer could not resolve. Imagin going down the road the it starts to rain and no wipers. Also there was a noise in the front end . Freight liner could not find, said it was in the coach. We sold it after about a year and half and went to a 38' FIVER AND A
One ton Dooley. I believe if we had had cooperation of either supplier we would still have it.
I,too liked the idea of the FRED. Noise was not a problem, nor was economy.
Now this is my IMO. if your really interested take it to a independent Mech. For a ck up!!!
