Reliability. A Step Up?
Hello All,
I have been lurking on the forum for quite some time as we consider our motorhoming future. We currently own a very nice Monaco product and it is our 11th motorhome and 7th diesel pusher. While we love the opportunities that traveling by motorhome offers, I am amazed by the continual mechanical (chassis) and coach problems we experience. This does not seem to be brand specific as we have owned several different brands and they have all suffered from nearly continuous costly and inconvenient repair needs.
Please don't get me wrong, I understand the rigors a coach must endure, but am curious if moving up to a Newell or Prevost based coach will cure these continuous pains in the "you know what!". My wife hates to fly, so RV travel will likely remain our preferred method of travel, but before we spend the money for the step up to a Newell (a used one, as we do not have anywhere near the net worth to buy a new one), I was curious if they follow the same reliability issues or is their quality a true step up? I am hoping some of you have been through this same scenario and can share some real life experience related to this topic.
I appreciate any input, opinion or direction you may offer.
Thank you,
Dan
