Andrew, you’re a magic man in finding all these great owners and stories. Unique view from Prevost “down” to an Entegra. Super helpful for my research and next purchase.
Glad I found your channel, really enjoy it. My uncle lives down in San Diego CA, he's an retired FedEx pilot. He and his wife bought an 2016 Entegra cornerstone. Such a beautiful coach.
Great interview. I like his honesty, egos can bust your bank account in a flash, especially in retirement years. Smart play for their age and truthfully it's one of the best in fiberglass IMO
@@midlifeprevost1182 I Know! my Tiffin makes me nervous, I can't even imagine paying the bill on a big ticket Prevost item. Honestly though, most of the Prevost owners that I meet have very few problems 😎
ANDREW, I enjoyed these video the best. Having someone who’s been to the top of the mountain give his viewpoint says more than any manufacturer video or prevost owners. You don’t know how good one glass of wine is until you compare it to another.
Excellent video, more of these pls, as some one that is looking and trying to decide which way to go, this is helping immensely. Would love to see more on hi-end production coaches. Believe it or not Covid has been a blessing it has slowed things down and given me more time to research all coaches, I was stuck on Prevost but after having time to watch more videos and research production coaches and watching this video, I'm not so sure thankyou Andrew for your hard work, and great informative Videos.. I was thinking coach buying was as easy as buying trucks and Heavy Equipment , But its not...lol...Tks again
Excellent video usually it's the opposite opinion with prevost compared to a production coach like integra Cornerstone now I have some argument ammo for my wife
Very interesting and eye opening interview! I have had two Safaris and a Monaco coach but I'm not on this level. But when my ship comes in I'll remember.
Andrew another hit out of the park! We will be in the market for a new coach and will for sure take a good look at a cornerstone. Like his input about the tires... Thanks Andrew,kevin from central fl..
This will be a sweet deal if someone can buy this coach as Tommy already got the problems solved and with bout 40,000 miles on this Cornerstone she's just getting broke in good 💜
I have a 2018 Entegra Aspire 44W. I agree with him.. key fob cargo door locks and auto trays should be on ALL Entegra 45' coaches. It is a shame mine is $400,000.00 + and I don't get either. The Cornerstone has that beautiful motor and transmission and air ride system...and bling bling bling.. that the Anthem and Aspire don't have. I am OK with that, cause I did not spent the extra $300,000.00 + dollars the Cornerstone is over my Entegra. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Entegra customer service. Those folks really listen to us and do everything they can to help us. I will buy another Entegra just because of the CS.
I love my 2017 Cornerstone and have a 2020 on order...can you ask him where he got the stainless kit for the rear engine compartment louvers? I would like to install those on my coach...thanks!
@@RVingwithAndrewSteele You would love it. They call it the "largest RV show" I call it the largest gathering of great people and a lot of RV's on display. If you can attend, let us all know the days you will be there.
@@dan_1003 awesome! I hope to cross paths with you. There are definitely a lot of great people in the RV community. The people I meet in the RV world, are definitely my favorite part of Rving.
Nice coach for a production coach. Like you said, usually, people trade the other way to a prevost, not from one. Whatever works I guess. Too bad we didnt get an inside tour. I do like the 32" screen above for GPS, etc. We are going to a fall RV show next weekend in saint louis to see some new stuff.
@@RVingwithAndrewSteele it's cool brother, ya can't have ur cake and eat it too all the time. ( who the heck came up with that saying anyway? and why cant the cake be eaten of you have it too? Hmmmmm?) Stay safe brother.
I was looking at the Cornerstone a few years ago but their parent company, Jayco, was bought by Thor and I noticed the next year a "cheapening" of stuff. They apparently got a lot a negative feed back and went back to some of the higher quality items, like Bose sound bars. I've also heard a lot more complaints about build quality. I went with Newmar.
@@jamesp2705 That's your opinion and not shared by us who do stage sound. They had used JBL which I like but switched to Sony before changing to Bose.
Andrew, he said that he took it back when it was in warranty, BUT... ask that dude can you take it back to the Entergra factory when it’s ‘OUT’ of warranty (5-10 years later) like you can with a Tiffin product?
Very good question. I don't know if I will cross paths with him again soon but I will keep that in mind. Even if you have a five-year-old Tiffin, it is not easy to get into the factory. Same with Newmar. I highly doubt that Integra is any better than Newmar or Tiffin as far as factory service centers.
he kinda echoes something I said in a post here on TH-cam. If you're in your 20s or 30s and you have many years to spend in your Rig then a Prevost or Newell, or liberty et al, is PRACTICAL, You have the "Opportunity" to get the MOST out of them. But at 65 (when you only have a "Few" good yrs left) and up these 2.5M coaches aren't PRACTICAL enough to justify their acquisition when you have rigs like the King Aire, Essex, Cornerstone, Zephyr, Allegro Bus, American Eagle and so on. Practicality, just like the gentleman said. JMHO.
Hmm, No that's not entirely accurate, the Cummins 605 IS NOT a detuned 650. The cummins 650 was discontinued because it was proven to be unreliable. There was also no extended warranty coverage for the RV engines. Cummins had several workarounds for various issues but eventually decided it was not profitable. Also the engine had a Dual Overhead Cam shaft. The Redesigned ISX comes with a Single OH camshaft.
What about the grey poupon.....! You can tell he's been around the block in a Coach a time or two. Most of us will never even see a coach like that let alone own one, but this gentleman touched on the great equalizer. It doesn't matter if you have a 2.65 million-dollar Prevo or a 15 year old coachmen Pusher like me that's only worth 50k. "DONT OVERLOOK YOUR TIRES" for those of you that don't know RV tires for most of us will age out before they wear out. Unless you're like the gentleman in the interview thats able to drive 20000 miles a year. I just replaced the tires on my new to me coach. They looked brand new not even a crack but they were dated 0411. my unit runs 6 tires Michelin would have cost me $4500 I bought the toyo for $2200 out the door they seem to ride good . I'm at 32k lbs rolling . I'm not trying to scare anybody but your tires will kill you if you let them . Happy rolling!
Lots of intelligent information, but a tour of the interior was what I was waiting for.😊.Maybe next time. I notice that you kept looking at the camera during the interview. Was there a problem with it? Beautiful coach, by the way.
I have to make sure that the camera hasn't shifted, is still recording, isn't overheating, memory isn't full and battery is still good ect. Most people have a crew doing this, I am one person. The coach has a lot of stuff inside so the interior shots didn't turn out very good.
Thank you, Andrew. It helps to understand the intricacies of filming. This was an interesting interview and this man was wonderfully forthcoming in sharing his views and experiences. It must be nice for you as the interviewer to speak with someone this articulate .
@@joansommerfield8419 absolutely! I was going to interview him in Arizona earlier this year but didn't get a chance and was really glad that I caught up with him. He has a ton of great information that he is shared with me throughout our conversations.
One of your better interviews..this guy is the real deal..knows his coaches..although his tip about watching the gps over head is down right stupid. Just my opinion. Just looking at the dash stuff can happen

Beautiful looker. Dependability and reliability are most important for me, and it seems like this one fits the bill. Great interview, Andrew.
Great interview. I like his honesty, egos can bust your bank account in a flash, especially in retirement years. Smart play for their age and truthfully it's one of the best in fiberglass IMO
Definitely! I have a ton of respect for this gentleman swallowing his pride. I still like your fifteen-year-old Prevost better though 😁😁
@@RVingwithAndrewSteele agreed👍 at their age warranty is a good thing because any given moment we can dish out $5000 for repairs on this beauty 🤪
@@midlifeprevost1182 I Know! my Tiffin makes me nervous, I can't even imagine paying the bill on a big ticket Prevost item. Honestly though, most of the Prevost owners that I meet have very few problems 😎
Owner interviews are great content. Insight into problems and resolutions are a great tool for prospective owners.
that’s exactly what I need to hear. I am looking into getting a cornerstone. Great job Andrew interviewing the gentleman.
I watch these videos before bed to make me sleep well and feel happy
Outstanding Interview from a very knowledgeable owner..
Very good interview. Good to hear from a satisfied customer after all the negative comments on RV build quality out there
Absolutely!
Elkhorn Ridge is a great campground in the Black Hills! Nice video Andrew.
Great interview. Thank you Andrew. I'm picking up my 06 Wanderlodge today. Really excited. I appreciate your videos and information.

2 Safari and Monaco, all great quality coaches 👌😎
Nice to get an honest perspective from a production coach owner.

Take it from the horse's mouth. This RV veteran gave an exquisite endorsement to two RVs, I'll keep that in my back pocket 😊.
Great meeting you at the gas pump in FH about 2 weeks ago. Speed safely. Wayne
Likewise! What a small world!
Great video Andrew! First time I have heard somebody comment on the engines. Also how important keeping watch on the tires.
"As you get older you get bigger" lol. I can relate
This will be a sweet deal if someone can buy this coach as Tommy already got the problems solved and with bout 40,000 miles on this Cornerstone she's just getting broke in good 💜
Great video. We’re researching class A’s now.
well done interview Andrew 👏👏👍👍
Wow impressed with all said here.....great warranty service!!!!
Very insightful love these types of videos
Cool please to hear he likes his cornerstone. it is on my shortlist
Another great video Drew... Keep hit’m over the fence bro.
Thank you sir!
Too bad you didn’t go inside the coach,otherwise great interview Andrew
Thank you, I did but they had everything covered up to protect for the dog and there was a lot of stuff in there so footage wasn't very good.
