Congrats, you definitely picked a great product. Many of us (and WAAAAY more than I) have had several, several RV, trailers, fifth wheels, etc and IMO, Dynamax has had the best quality I've encountered. I absolutely love our Dynamax product.

Anyway, Nice looking rig. Congrats.
LOL!


You mis-interpreted....I tried to save money _WHILE_ buying it, not save money _BECAUSE_ I bought it.

In all seriousness, buying the coach from Longhorn RV in Mineola TX saved us somewhere around $6-7k over Lazy Days in Colorado (our closest Dynamax Dealer in CO). Colorado is notorious for having elevated RV prices.

Still trying decide. Just wanted to get on the road and Dynamax said we could drive it in primer until we made up our mind.

It’s beautiful!!
We have a Sunseeker 24 ft (but my husband not so secretly wants a huge Dynamax pulling a huge Hummer). I love our MH but I don’t like the swoops in our paint job. At all. In any paint job.

Y’all are going to have lots of fun, you’ve got a great attitude about it all and good reasons for your decisions. It’s all good.

Great color! We've had our Isata 5 36DS for almost one year. First camper as well. No regrets. And, I wouldn't miss the outdoor t.v. at all. We recently stayed at a campground without cable so we downloaded several hours of Netflix in advance. Ended up watching one hour of TV during a 5 night stay and could have easily done without that. Get ready for the best family time ever.

Congratulations, Awesome rig. Hope we get a chance to see it in person as you travel through the country. It'll be easy to spot with its unique paint job. Have fun!

Congratulations! Great idea about the removal of the outside tv. We picked up our Isata 5 30FW in May. Welcome to the Dynamax family. People are so helpful on this forum.

We really enjoyed Dinosaur NM last year.

Congrats on the new ride! The color difference between sun and shade is amazing. Nice choice on an Audi color

Agreed! It's been pretty astonishing to see how EVERYBODY is so willing and able to help.

Yeah, we do the same thing. Netflix/Amazon Prime have been a Cable/Satellite TV replacement in our house for years now. Can't see why I would change that now.....and especially when there is a whole big world out there to see!

It is pretty obvious when you see it going down the road!

Welcome to the family!

As another first time RVer who started with dynamax I can say you’re in for quite a ride. I am officially addicted and no longer want to vacation any other way. You’ll be amazed at the uses you hadn’t even considered

He's right... we just finished our 14 or 15th cruise last week. After meeting everyone at Anchor's Down in TN, we have decided no more cruises, we will be taking the RV somewhere. Time to see the rest of the country!
