Foretravel vs Newell air suspension

The guy at the oil shop said the front end looked like it needed some work on tie rods or something... I'm planning to have that looked at if I can ever find a shop nearby to work on it... (Flame suit on)...
ON THE OTHER HAND, I would never own anything but a steel or aluminum coach ever again.  I don't like fiberglass and all the delam problems that come with it.  I do understand how much heavier the Newells are and this is ONLY my opinion, which is free, so you get what you pay for :-)

Funny thing, I drove a 03 Foretravel last week and the first thing I ask the salesman did this thing have power steering.  He said of course it does, you are just use to driving a Newell.  I also owned a 02 Foretravel several years ago, which I traded for the 99 Newell.  The 99 drives and tracks a lot better.
