Newmar Baystar 3124- No comparison
We have been looking at class A Winnebagos, Thor Huricane, Jaycos. Today we went in a 31 ft Newmar. Too bad for me! My wife fell in love with it. I will say we went over it with a fine tooth comb ...

If you could swing the Newmar, do it...the support is outstanding, and the way they are built is why it is much better insulated (the heat and the cold are handled much better)...I'm not discrediting the Winnebago but the fact that Winne used Schwintek slides in some models where Newmar doesn't is enough for that decision...the schwintek slides while less of a problem with Winnebago, still are schwintek slides (ie if you put lipstick on a pig, it is still a pig)...Newmar does it differently....I have seen already this year two schwintek slides literally almost fall out of the coach at two campgrounds.
Interesting. I have worked on scores of and we have sold hundreds of RV's (Motorized and towables) and have NEVER seen a Schwintek "fall out or attempt to fall out of an RV". Maybe because Schwintek does NOT design the BOX and the interior Slide Fascia's and aluminum angles and braces that hold the rooms IN and stop it from going too far out. ALL a Schwintek does is glide on floor rollers and the motors just move the room in and out on the 4 tracks. I always find it interesting when some RV'er that is NOT a Service center or professional RV Technician states they have seen not just 1 but more than 1 out of the possible norm problem and then post it.
