I would love to, and I know you would be happy to do the onsite. However, I just don't know that I want to trade coaches. Meaning trade one that is paid for for one that is not. Rhonda's expression everytime I get to looking at Newell porn is "you could buy a lot of diesel for that money"

Rhonda is right Richard; I have a Newell friend who is fond of saying, "these coaches will outlast all of us". I'm 65 now so I guess I only have about 10 maybe 12 years left for RVing. That would make my '99 Newell only 24 or 25 years old; we see plenty of those vintage Newells on the road today. So unless I win the lottery, I'll be driving this one for a long time! Hopefully!

Of course, it is fun to dream. I do it every night; presently, I'm drooling over coach #762 on Newell's website. A 2006 quad with the turning tag. I love that green!

you guys are funny. i am just wanting to go look at it and have a good reason to....

that said, we all justify what we have for different reasons. before i had slides i was convinced i didnt care about slides. now that i have one with and one without....we really like the 2 slides. again, justifying....i am now convinced that i wouldnt like to have 2 slides in the living room because we travel with more than the 2 of us quite a bit and it makes it much harder to do so (or so i suspect) with 2 slides up front. again, justifying what i have....i am good at that.

i suspect this newell will be the one we have until croaksville arrives or i cant use it anymore.

who knows....

later

Only $333,000, too. Tom, if you got a 4 slide coach I'd have to re-evaluate our friendship.....lol.....JK!

Since we are all doing a little "dreaming" here, I wonder what the next major innovation will be on motorcoaches. I consider sliderooms and the turning tag axle to be the last major innovations.

What's next?

I would like to see an air system that would self diagnos air leaks. Since air leaks are one of our most frequent problems that would be a nice addition: an air system that leaks RED where ever there is a leak!

How about it Newell engineers! Boyd? John? Anybody?

Good point Matt.

The only other way to make that much money would be to open a glass shop! Replacing windshields is like owning a gold mine - the money just keeps rolling in!
