News & True RV Stories

Friday morning started off with an 8:15am meeting at Monaco.  We recently signed on with the new Monaco now under the ownership of Navistar:  http://www.navistar.com/Navistar/Brands.  Navistar is the largest producer of diesel engines (MaxxForce) and over the road trucks (international), plus they own Navistar defense which builds military vehicles, these are brands that require the highest of quality which they are implementing with Monaco every day. Monaco had arranged for some recently completed models to be on display, 1 of each model parked in a line for us to walk through.  I really enjoyed the new 43DFT Diplomat, it's a great floor plan with a large galley and unique rear bathroom layout.  This year the Diplomat is also "all hardwood" cabinetry. The display model has a 425HP Cummins and was well equipped with an MSRP of $306,000.00.  The model under that was also finished off nice for $230,000.00 MSRP, the Cayman.  It featured all tile flooring, residential refer option, and hardwood face frames.  The new Camelot has a Navistar designed dash and upgraded countertops and tile.  All in all I was pleasantly surprised and look forward to selling the new Monaco products.  I took pictures of a few of these new models if needed and have specs and retail price sheets.
