Chassis on both of your examples are beefier, certainly the prevost by far. Prevost has an engine/tranny/etc that will do close to a million miles, prevost have hydronic heating systems with stone flooring, prevost are held to higher dot safety standards than trailers which means every part is heavier with coach weight more than double anything in montana land. Don't know a lot about the newmar except built by a class a manufacturer with a different headset than a trailer manufacturer trying to build as cheap as possible and they are heavy. The other thing to consider is that lower build numbers equates to higher cost in manufacturing. My guess is that prevost makes less units in a year than keystone makes in a month by far. John
