Its a funny thing, before knowing about Newell I was really headed in the direction of American Eagle. One big reason for it was a comment I'd seen on RV.Net where he said (and I'm paraphrasing a bit here), "I live in Hudson, Florida and have a 1995 40' American Eagle DP and would not hesitate to drive from here to Alaska"!
I sent him a PM about maintenance issues etc and he said American has been around for a long time, has the reputation for building a good motorhome, parts are available and American takes good care of their owners. That was good information to me and seemed to be supported from others who commented.
That was impressive to me and I started researching the American products and came away with a very good feeling about the American build! Then of course Newell came along and blew, even Prevost, out of the water!
Its their standard of excellence that first got my attention because they are so much more than just a pretty face. Its hard for me to compleatly wrap my mind around the maintainance issues never owning a motorhome. But one thing I know for sure, buying quality gives a much greater assurance of future good news! Hey I met you guys and I'm still committed to Newell...
