Excel Classic Reviews on RV Insider (3)
Avg. Rating

We purchased our Excel new and lived in it full-time for over ten years through cold Colorado winters and warm summers. Whatever the outside temperature, we were always comfortable inside. It is a well built coach (all wood construction) and we have never had any iissues with the roof, walls or trailer foundation (we needed to replace the refrigerator, A/C and some plumbing components through the years). Due to the high quality materials used in construction, Excels sold for higher prices than other RVs and could not compete (the company is now out of business), If you are looking to live full-time in a 5th Wheel RV, Excel is still a good choice.

We travelled to Canada this summer and were on the road for more than 6 weeks in this coach. We loved the drivability of the coach on the road, and the amenities of the coach when parked. We felt we could live in the coach with no sacrifice in comfort and convenience. The amount of inside storage space and counter space really made a difference in livability, and made the living area of the coach feel even more spacious. Newmar builds a beautiful coach and you can feel the quality of materials and build standard.

We spent almost 6 weeks this summer traveling to Canada with the coach. The 4049 floor plan eliminates one of the couches in favor of extensive counter and storage. There are just the 2 of us and the additional couch just wastes space. We were very comfortable in the coach and pleased with the quality and amenities (all electric coach). The Newmar Comfort Drive system makes driving a breeze, even in crosswinds and when trucks pass. I do not think there is a better coach out there for comfort, quality and value.
