It's always interesting when one manufacturer does something different, clearly weighing risks vs rewards.

Newell apparently only offers combination waste/grey water tanks (sometimes with a grey water bypass switch). I would think that offers more flexibility (don't have to worry black vs grey capacities), but apparently it's a requirement of RVIA.

I would think an in-tank rinsing system would be a must  (ie Santicon or similar), but I don't think I've ever seen a coach listed with it.
Which then makes me wonder about the grey water bypass ~ creating a bigger issue by not being able to flush out the hose?
And a related issue, do Newell's offer maserators on the tank dump connections?

Do any of you have issues or experience either way with a combined tank? Thoughts?

this morning i used my shop air to bring the coach to travel height.  the front end went all the way up and stayed there AND the ride height valve was releasing air as it should have been.  

i pulled out of the garage and to the front of the house.  

from a previous experience i knew most likely what it was.    

the front six pack air valve for RAISE for the front airbags had ruptured a seal.  it was an old valve.  that was allowing air to pass through to the airbags when it should have been holding pressure.  thus....the airbags were getting air when they should not have and the ride height valve was trying to release the air, but not as fast as the air was going in.  

so, since i have valve rebuild kits (ha) i took an older valve i had and rebuilt it, took the one off the six pack and replaced it with the one i rebuilt and all was well.

Here is the manual for the Series D ABS in my coach. The code says I have 6 modulator valves and 6 wheel sensors.

Occasionally I find the screws that hold the moldings on the side of my Newell loosen up. I was looking at a newer (1999?) Newell recently and I believe it only had screws at the ends of the moldings. I'm assuming Newell used an adhesive to hold them in place. I'm thinking of removing my moldings and adding an adhesive to them before screwing them in place. Does anybody know what Newell uses to hold the moldings on?

Steve Bennett has merged California Coach with Premier Coach Group in Gilbert, AZ. California Coach's location in Costa Mesa, CA is closing and their inventory is moving to Premier Coach Group. Steve and Rhonda are moving to AZ to be close to family and he will be working for Premier Coach Group effective today, Sept 6, 2016.

Steve is a hard working, stand-up guy whom I have had to pleasure to know for the past 11 years. If you are looking for a used coach, please look him up.

My best wishes to Steve, Rhonda and Taylor.

I am still interested in finding a Classic Newell but the Newells for sale section almost always lists coaches by coach number.
What are the coach numbers of the classics of the 80's age group?

Howdy, 

A number of you have asked if we were OK after the Hermine hit. The short answer is yes. Actually there was hard rain but that was about it here in Inverness. 

To all of you who checked on me, Thanks!

Not a Newell owner yet, but hope to be.  Have moved from an Airstream trailer to an Airstream Class B+ to a Four Winds Siesta 24SR.  We’ve just started our search for a Newell.  As of now, we’re looking at a 1990 to 1996 coach, because we don’t want or need a slide.  I’m sure our search will narrow as we follow this blog.  I’ve already learned a great deal about what goes on.  Quite concerned about the necessity to keep the rig plugged in at all times for the various reasons.  We don’t have a great deal of money and if it’s going to cost thousands just to keep it up in storage, we’ll probably find another rig.

To further complicate matters, I'm not a blogger, so I've got no idea what I'm doing or where this is going..
