I would like to point out a couple of things. First, the ad for the new Monaco says "gas pusher", meaning the engine is in the rear. It's not in the rear, which should have been noticeable to you when you drove it. Secondly, we have a 2007 Monaco LaPalma, which broke down when we were in the Yukon. Ours was one of the last Monaco's built by the old Monaco that went bankrupt. When Navistar took over Monaco, somehow they didn't do much about parts, and when we needed a part in the Yukon, we couldn't get the part from Monaco, but had to go back to the part supplier, who had to make a new part because they didn't make that part anymore. Net result was the motorhome stayed in the Yukon for 5 weeks while the new part was manufactured, while we drove back to Cambridge in our toad (4000 miles), then 5 weeks later flew back to Whitehorse to drive the MH back. Needless to say I am less than impressed with Navistar`s concern for old Monaco customers
