Wow, how time flies!
Sorry for the short notice, but here goes . . .

I am hosting a "non rally" at Palmetto Cove RV park in Cleveland SC on October 12th to 15th

Friday night -- Spaghetti, bread & salad provided -- desert pumpkin pie & ice cream

Saturday morning  --  omelets in a bag

Saturday lunch  --  on your own

Saturday night  -- BBQ & beans -- bring your favorite sides or desert

Sunday morning  --  Coffee, juice & doughnuts

The Cove now accepts reservations, so make them as soon as you can & tell them you are with the bus-nuts.
http://www.palmettocove.com/index.html

All sites are full hookup with lots of 50 amp sites available.

There is no rally fee, you just pay for your campsite and contribute as you like - donation, side dishes, fellowship. . . . .

There will be Airstream trailers & motor homes there, a few converted buses, some sticks & staples & at least 1 classic Newell in attendance.

Hope to see more Newells there !

I just received an email from Brian Pitts that #1533 has just been traded in. It is not listed on their website yet. 

Price will be $1,495,000. 

It is a quad slide, front entry, with the Cummin ISX 600 HP engine and the Allison 6 speed tranny. It has Travertine tile flooring throughout. I am attaching a few photos from back in Feb of 2015 when it was first offered by Newell.

This is a dumb question. Isn't a seal just like an inner tube on a bike? Assuming the hole is located where one can get to it, couldn't you patch it just like tube?

Hi all! 
My wife and I are looking to purchase a 2002 Quad slide Newell. Assuming that the current owners have maintained their Newell, what should I be on the look out when considering the purchase? 
The coach has 148k miles and they are the second owners.

I had an experience where one of the zones in the coach was blowing cold air when the heat was supposed to be on. Quick checking showed the pump motor for that zone was not on. Further checking showed it was not getting power although the relay was getting a signal to close. 

The relays are those three clear covered cubes on the side of the aquahot. Easy to check if you suspect a bad one by moving them to different locations. If the dead pump follows a relay, then the problem is identified. 

They are Dayton part number 1A486M, less than 10 bucks at Grainger. I replaced all three.

Of course I took the cover off of the failed relay just to see what I could see. Green corrosion on both the pins and internal to the unit. Well of course, it's not a sealed unit, and its in an environment that can be wet from time to time. 

Kept the two good ones for emergency spares.

Amazon currently is selling a gallon for $23.95.  That is $4 off the regular price.  Free shipping for Prime members.

These deals usually only last about an hour.

I'm trying to get the heater/dash AC blower running on my 1995 unit. The breaker has current, but the dash switch does not have power.
Got any ideas?
