Her story began as an idea of us wanting to upgrade from the 5th wheel toy hauler we had previously when we camped with our kids. We spent some time at the Tamp RV Show in 2018, met lots of manufacturer reps, walked lots of floor plans, talked with lots of folks, and fell in love with Newmar after spending several hours with their rep.
We walked the Dutch Star coaches at the show that North Trail RV had there, and a sales rep suggested we take the drive down to their showroom to look at other floor plans they had available. After most of a day walking unit, we found our floorplan, the 4362!
Things went on hold for a bit due to covid, but by the time summer of 2020 came around, we were ready to move forward. We knew we wanted to order the coach and customize it (as well as do the Factory Pick-Up with Newmar) so we scheduled time to visit the Newmar Design Center in Nappanee in September.
It was a great visit with Natalie at the Design Center. We picked out all of our colors and furnishings. We had a list of custom things we wanted to do to the coach and worked through that with her. We spent the next couple of months corresponding with her as we put together the details for the “Specials in our order”.
