“Monaco is recognized as the technology leader in luxury motorhomes. This new Executive raises the bar even higher,” states Monaco National Sales Manager, Mark Kealoha. “Auxiliary audio was added in the cockpit and refinements made in the dash, improving the visibility of the GPS screen. A new KIB tank level display was also added, enabling tank levels to be viewed both in the exterior service center and inside the coach. 

 Also new for 2008 are two HD receivers that come standard with the in-motion digital satellite system. The Executive continues to offer the safety and convenience of optional SEE-Vision ® which helps eliminates blind spots while you drive and serves as a 360-degree security system while you are parked. In addition, the optional Eaton-Vorad sensing system alerts you to potential hazards while driving.”

Suggested retail price starts at $484,711.

Gene & Mary Andrews :   Most everyone nowadays use a computer. When I travel I take my wireless laptop with me. What about those travelers that do a little day trading on the stock market or have other business interest that need looking after? A desk with a pencil drawer and two file drawers is an important option. We are previous owners of a 2002 Monaco Executive.

Jeff :   If you have any sense don't purchase from Giant RV in California. This is without a doubt the worst Monaco dealer in the country. Monaco should dump them. They have created damage to my coach everytime it has been put in for repairs.

Mike Brenmar :   I agree that these new Executives sure look nice. Our 2001 Holiday Rambler also made by Monaco has been ok, a lot of problems but fixed and we've now got more than 60,000 miles of happy rving. I'd definitely go for a monaco next time.

Janet :   We have used 2001 Monaco Signature. Looking for specialzed trained people to assist with upgraded with a newer look. Tile, new carpet, eliminate drapes. PalmDesert Area. Not pleased with Monaco/Palm Desert Dealer.

Knockabout :   Where's the kitchen counterspace?????

Wayne S :   I don't appreciate the glassed in showers that you can see through when you pass through the area or going to the w/c.

Ruth 43 :   Why don't they have an Executive full-wall slide model for 2008? I think the floorplans show a reduction in width just at the point where people need MORE width, ie near the bathroom. Also, none of the 3 floorplans show the refrig. on a slide opposite another slide - this is another area where people get in each others way.

Kashi and Ken Roberts :   The "feel" of fulltime living in an RV is really important as well as enjoying all the people and places we meet and visit. We greatly enjoy the technical detail and maintaining our coach. We have a 2003 Executive and it "feels" great. We've always felt that our home stands out from the crowd and the 45' Monaco Executive models look even better.

Ken Norbert :   These new Executives sure look nice. We have the 2002 41' Executive with 2 slides. It's a beautiful coach and we've not really had any problems. One thing we have that is really nice that doesn't seem to be on the 2008 models is a second bath with w/c. Not sure about the 45' length, seems a bit too long, getting in and out of some places with our 41' is bad enough and I wonder if 45' would be too restricting?
