Title: 2007, 2008, 2009 Affinity and Magna

We have finally sold our land anchor and are now looking for an 07-09 Affinity or Magna. Are there any issues with these coaches (like the PTO, aluminum radiator, slideout seals, paint checking, etc.) that we should keep an eye out for close inspection? Are there any prior CC techs that we can contact off line who will travel to a private sellers coach to do a coach inspection? We have been a CC "want-to-be" for a few years now and look forward to meeting you all down the road.

George, Terri; I'd recommend, without reservation, Eric Olstrom of Premier Motor Coach Services in Tucson, 520-624-2024. He was a top level Tech at CC, and probably had a hand in building any coach you'd look at. He's also a great guy and easy to work with. I know from personal experience.

You need to visit Damon Rapozo web site. It will tell you about updates and base prices of each model you are interested in as they changed throughout the years. There were a lot of chassis changes in 08 for the better I'm told and by then Cummins was the standard engine by default. You have to decide if you want to deal with the diesel exhaust particle filter and if you want to be tied to the ULtra-low filtered diesel, thats not necessary with 06 coaches and some 07 models I believe.

Is the exhaust particle filter an owner replacable filter or one that is done during engine service for th3 07-09 coaches? Has there been problems with those filters?

Hello all.

Thanks for pointing me to some available coachs. I haven't heard any comments about this year group of coachs, good or bad. Were the issues with earlier models before 2007 corrected in the late model coaches? I just want to know what to look for when I find one that looks great.

Thanks again.
