Newmar X-Aire Sighting

Today, 11/21/20, about noon, white Gen 1 Volvo with white smart on deck, pulling a Newmar X-Aire toy hauler, west bound on US 50 in Lawrenceburg, Indiana.

X-Aires are pretty scarce, so it caught my eye.  And the rig looked just like ours except truck color.

Uhhh...  Okay, my spring loaded wallet won't stay open long enough for me to buy one.  Besides, we're happy with the Newmar, for now.

He can't get a new rig yet. He just got a new awning and has to pay it off. 🤪🤪

It'll take a while.  Susan's withholding it from my lunch allowance. Maybe I'll loose some weight!

I gained 10# at the rally.  Who said rally calories don't count?

That was us.  I've only ever seen one other with the paint like ours, until my sighting last week.  They're sorta rare.

There was one @ the 2018 rally, too. Didn't get to see who it was.

Believe that would be Jim Foley and Terri Frailey’s Newmar.  Believe they’re planning on selling it as they downsize rigs.

In my judgement, Newmar fifth wheels have solid bones and was on our short list when we shopped for our RV. I’d put their construction near the level of a New Horizon. Still believe picking up a good used one and refurbishing it will bring you years of use at a fraction the cost of a new one.
