  1. Thanks Bill i sure will. The 2019 4550 i looked at is way discounted but has alot wrong with it. Stolen outside tv , doors in back warped from heat , main tv elevator etc.. Even the front seat fabrics have problems and needs new seats. I have already contacted National and will be going to see what they have. The other problem with buying from lazy days it will take them a year to get all fixed. Thank for the advice.--Chris
  2. Lazydays in phoenix , they were called desertautoplex but Lazydays bought them out
  3. Thanks for the response , i believe i have got use to the smaller coach , and can easily get into gas stations etc. We also do a lot of boon docking at the local lakes. We pull a jeep gladiator and yes with a 360 horsepower it takes time to get going for sure. Going up hill , or getting behind slow truck cant pass. I have looked at the 2019 mountain aire 4550 this week and will take for a test ride. Also the 3543 and 3545 2020 newmar new air.Newmar really seams like a great company also.Really nice rigs.
  4. I have a 2019 Tiffin REd 33aa. Does this unit have independent front suspension? Also are all the Tiffin(diesel pusher lineup) have the same front suspension minus chassis on the phaeton and bus.. Someone had also mentioned that a super steer bell crank with Koni shock absorbers is a good add for my current unit? I like the smaller coach(to get into tighter places) and have looked into the Newmar New aire 3543, 2020 model and we considering. I have not tried one yet but have heard they have comfort drive and v-ride suspension on back. Is it that much a better ride? Our coach we have now is not a bad ride , and we are not full timers. Does anyone have experience between these 2 rigs and is it worth it?Thanks for your help.

    They have one 2019 Bus 37 ap left at La Mesa. We test drove it and the electronic console kept going out. By the time we got back to the dealership the navigation also went out. This i believe is there first year with electronic gauges Again we did not see a difference in handling compared to Red..There asking price out the door on coach(Bus) was $288k. I paid $188k for the 2019 Red.

    Thats what im thinking also.La Mesa has ordered the Blue ox and patriot braking system. Should be here in a week.
  7. The 2012 has the original gas tank.22.5 gallon tank.The 2 door is having a gas tank being made custom right now due to long arms being installed.

    Manholt the 2019 Reds are 360 horsepower with the allison 3000 transmission.
  9. I bought the jeep 2012 6.4 hemi , when my 2 door was being done at total auto pros. They did most of the work. Then the ls swap is being done in florida. Total auto only does AEV swaps. The guy i bought it from has 12 jeeps and all aevs. He never takes them off road. He always request gusseting the axles and installing 40s. To be honest the jeep drives on the road and offraod better than any jeep i have ever had. It also has hydrolic steering. It makes it handle like a sports car. I am going to get the 2012 jeep weighed.
  10. Offroad for many years. I have 4 jeeps as of now. 2012 6,4 hemi. 2- 2018 JLs one is mine and one is wifes.Mine is being completed in Florida right now. It is in no way stock now. Dynatrac pro rock 60 axles front and rear.King coil overs .Bead locks etc........It is being finished off with long arms front and rear (the first to be done as of now for 2 door) and 500 hp ls3 . The company is Bruiser conversions.The other is a 77 jeep wagoneer being restored. I have had at least a dozen or more Rubicons and many many other Raptors etc.My problem is i do not have alot of RV experience and flat towing.

    Manholt are you saying it tows better or is just better in upgrades?

    Towing

    jleamont , i test drove the Bus.I did not feel that much difference.As for more upgrades(bus) in the coach it for sure has that. I have not towed my jeep behind it , or either for that matter.The handling appears to be similar.If it would be a big difference i may consider.
  13. It was designed by a truck driver to help with blow outs. I also understand it really helps with ride.

    We currently have a 2019 Tiffin Red 33aa.It has 360 horsepower and 800 torque. Gross weight of this coach is 32k.We had a sale person contact us about a Tiffin 2019 bus 37ap. 450 horsepower and 1250 torque.Gross weight is 41k.The Red is 10k for towing and i belive the Bus is 15k.We have a jeep that weighs 5500 hundred pounds.Would both coaches pull it close to same?Or would it make a big difference getting the bus. Also it seems they are only asking 280k otd for the bus.It is still new.Thanks
  15. I have not weighed it yet. If i were to guess i would say 1800 pounds heavier on the high side.The coach we have currently has a 10k hitch.
  16. Herman have you ever test drove a newmar with comfort drive?
  17. Thanks Bill thats what we have been told a few times. I agree with you. Thanks for your advice. Thanks much--Chris
  18. My wife and i were wondering if the comfort system on Newmar (TRW) deisels can be installed on our tiffin?Is this comfort drive really that good also?Thanks
  19. We currently have a 2019 Tiffin 33aa. We have a price from La mesa Rv to install a blue ox and braking system.I have heard different ideas about towing the jeep. First it has a 5 inch lift and 40 inch tires. It is big.Second it has a PSC hydraulic steering system on it to steer the big tires. The jeep also has a 6.4 hemi conversion.I am questioning it myself , and even brought it down to La Mesa for them to look at. They said it could be done.I have never seen a lifted jeep being flat towed. Any thoughts?
  20. What size coach will most rv parks/state parks let you in or more available?We currently have a Tiffin 33aa. We are thinking a 40 or 45? Whats everyones thoughts.Thanks.
  21. Manholt luxury would be best possible safe and comfortable ride.We started off last year in a gasser Tiffin 34 pa and it handled horrible.We currently have the 2019 Tiffin Red 33AA. Its a big difference.We are adding a safe t plus bar to it. It didn't have a lot of wind push like the Gasser. We also like the idea for safety in case of a blow out.The tag axle are the 40 footers or so correct?We are going to next year work from the road and want to upgrade and like the Tiffins and new-mars. Any suggestions on models?Thanks --Chris
  22. Just curious to find out if all the Tiffin diesel pushers ride ability is close to same? We have a 2019 Red 33aa. There is the Phaeton and then the Bus. So the more money spent is pretty much just for luxury? Thanks much--Chris
  23. Wolfe i believe it is called safety t plus stabilizer bar. Manholt i will try what is suggested. Thanks for your help.
