When I bought my coach in 2007, I was told that GS and Navistar had a three year exclusive agreement to build coaches on the International truck chassis. That agreement should be up now. I cannot help but think that you will see an International chassis on a Monaco or Holiday Rambler coach now that Navistar owns the Monaco brand.
I, too, am disappointed that the new platform will not be used on the SuperNova (if, in fact, that is the case). The SuperNova offers the most diverse floor-plans and best value in the class 6 truck chassis market. Adding the 4400 chassis with air suspension, brakes, etc. would have only made it better. After talking to the sales folks at my local International dealership, I cannot believe the price would be more that $20,000 more which would still make it a value compared to other class 6 and larger chassis'.
I, too, noticed that the advertising had been pulled from the Martinsburg RV site but noticed it is still on the Gulf Stream A class website.
