Monaco Knight - Opinions??
2006 Monaco Knight A friend's RV up for sale. As I look around at various offers in my quest to upgrade to a DP, it appears to be a great RV. Any opinions on this one?

Going on memory here so I may not be spot on but wasn't one of the reasons they went out of business is because they used an independent chassis and engines that were not smog compliant? I think the mainstream chassis and engine manufacturers went with the DEF approach and Monaco went with their own design? Maybe I am thinking of something else. I know Navistar bought them to salvage them from bankruptcy.
That said, I think they built a very nice coach and this one seems to be very clean and well maintained.
They went out of business because they were over leveraged by buying too many other RV companies, when the session started and sales dropped drastically. They were bought by Navi-Star international and shut down.
The reason I would hesitate would be because of no coach parts from a supporting company.
