Return to Birthplace



Our 34,000 lb., 39 ft. Dutch Star motorhome was born in 2002 in Nappanee, Indiana. This week we returned to her birthplace, the Newmar Corp. We got to see how quality goes in to the building of RV's like the Dutch Star, Kountry Star, Mountain Aire, Essex, and other Newmar models. We saw four men push a 45-foot motor home to the next assembly station. Yep. The rig rests on air cushioned pads and when it's time to move it along, they apply air and the unit literally floats. After the factory tour we got to go inside each model and dream of a newer one one day.
