We bought a 2006 Knight 40DFD new and like most of you, had a few problems to get fixed. But this is a great coach, lots of room with the wall slide. I'm not sure about "Jim & Karen" concerns with the bath in rear ... if you have not driven Monaco's RR8R chassis with the 8 air bags (2 on each wheel, and outboard on the chassis) you are in for a real treat. I have no desire to give up this coach, but if I did, I would buy another.

We have only had our Knight for 6 months. And have 12K miles on it. We have not had a single engine problem with the coach. Our problems have been ssmall but fixable. Little things that could drive you nuts. It has not gone into storage once. After every trip it returns to the dealer to for warrenty work. I feel my dealer is slow to fix problems as I see manycoachs in for repair. Love the room. My dealer just started this year to sell Monaco. So we are all learning togeather how to repair the coaches. Based upon your experiences, would you buy one of this manufacturer's RVs again?: Yes. Rating: 4/5.

like the rear bath, but what does that do to the weight distribution of the coach? don't care for the full wall slide concept--hard to believe structurally sound.

We traded our 99 LaPalma on an 06 Knight to give us more room and an upgrade to the diesel. Unfortunately, the coach has seen more time at the dealer than it has on the road for us. Every time it comes back, there's something else that is wrong.

We looked at the Knight at the Salt Lake RV Show. This is a beautiful home and very well priced. My wife really wanted the full tile from front to back, but it is not available. The one displayed at the show had laminated tile instead of real tile. We are considering the home. We like the idea of not having the TV over our heads. If you like room, this is the coach to consider.

We are retiring this year and bought a Monaco Knight in 05. We have not had a single problem and have had friends that bought other manufacturers and have had terrible problems - love my Monaco Knight

There are several aspects that are new this year that I like from the interior point of view: the kitchen in the front and the TV in the hutch (in the Knight 40 SKT) and the full wall slide (in the Knight 40 DFT) But 0h! oops - don't get so comfortable that you kick back and let the motorhome drive itself! (what is wrong with this picture?... see the one next to the dinette and above the cargo space).

I have a 2002 Knight that I bought new. I had many problems to start with with leveling jacks and water leaks. These problems were solved after many trips to the dealer's workshop but I think Monaco didn't have adequate quality control. I hope it's got better now but reading some of the consumer reports I think it might still be a problem. I like the side hinged cargo doors I think that might be a useful improvement.
