Hello Everyone!

My name is Brian Stanton.  I am the Sales and Marketing Manager for American Fleet Inc.  We are a Detroit Diesel Engine Specialist located in Springfield Missouri.  We have been in the bus engine re-manufacturing business for over 35 years.  We are a entertainer and charter bus repair facility that only works on buses!  Our mechanics have been with the company for more than 20 years and are "seasoned" bus mechanics that know there way around a bus engine.  

We build the engines (with Genuine Detroit Diesel parts) at our facility and ship nation wide.  We also offer installations at our facility as well.  We offer towing if a trusted mechanic is not available in your area.

We build each engine to your engine serial number and ship 3-4 days once we receive your order.  We are saving our clients an average of $8,000.00 to $10,000.00 per engine versus any local Detroit Diesel authorized shop.  We also carry Detroit 2 cycle engines as well.  

Please checkout out our website link below, and visit us on Face Book for pictures from our daily builds for coach and charter bus companies that come to us for installation.  If anyone has questions, please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience.  

Thanks
Brian Stanton

I am looking for power sunshades for the windshield area. MCD is the only company I have found. I'm interested in what is installed in other coaches and whether you are satisfied with it.?

can there be damage done to a jake brake by applying it for long periods of time?  The reason I ask we took a day trip today with our jeep from where our campground is just north of the state of Washington on the Canadian side. One portion of the trip was a 12 mile 7 to 8% decline with three 10mph switchbacks in it. I myself have never taken our newell down that type of mountain. More than likely a slow 40 minute drop in a lower gear with jake applied steady. Help on that if I should so decide that trip.

Good Afternoon,

I would like to introduce myself, I'm Roy Dameron, I'm retired and currently have a 42 ft Nimbus 09 Foretravel. I'm about 100 miles east of Miami. I am very pleased with my Foretravel. This summer I got a chance to see in a 06 Newell. I was very impressed with the floor plan. We are now spending 6-7 months in our coach a year, and it works well. However, when you live in one you really learn what would be better.

My Foretravel has 3 slides ( my choice) but with our 80 lb Golden retriever and the little dog another slide would be nice. A half bath, stacked washer/ dryer, rear bath and a little larger kitchen counter are all things that would improve our motor homing experience. Naturally, the Newell had all these things. I have seen at least one former Foretravel owner on this forum; so I am interested in how the two compare. Does the Newell drive/ride better than my FT which has HWH Active Air? What do you former FT owners like about the Newells?
The newer IH 45 Foretravels have all these things, but I find the Newells floor plans more pleasing to my eyes. Also any thoughts on how the Newells drive/ride compared to the Prevost?

I appreciate any comments you have

Roy

701 has a side mount genset with a radiator that lays flat in an adjoining compartment. On top of the radiator sits a squirrel cage with an electric motor to turn it. Today the electric motor became extremely hot and quit rotating as fast and eventually quit all together. I replaced the motor my self in July of 2014. It quit in the spring of this year and Newell replaced it with another one. Does anyone have any ideas why I would go through 3 in just over a year?

We just got back to our home in Virginia after picking up 236 from Bill in Oklahoma. We picked her up last Thursday and thoroughly enjoyed our leisurely 9 days on the road with her. Thank you Tom for all the upgrades you made while you owned her. Thank you Bill for staying close to your phone for the many question we have had so far. I want to also pre-emptively thank you for staying close to your phone for all the questions forthcoming. It was truly a pleasure to meet you and we thank you and are very happy with the purchase!

We look forward to seeing all you Newell Gurus on the road! We can only hope to one day obtain Guru status.
