I purchased my first coach a few years back, and was fortunate enough to buy a Newell! It has been an amazing experience- much of the information I gleaned prior and during ownership was from LCL but that forum seems to be, for the most part, dead. I've created a page where much of the information I have on the coach is in one spot for two reasons- I'd like to be able to give back a bit to the community, and the coach is for sale.

I followed a lot of the Alaska group rally threads- it is my understanding that very few actually made it to Alaska. As a born and raised Alaskan, I've driven the highway at least a half dozen times, so feel free to hit me up with any questions you may have. I've come to the conclusion that many caravans never happen because people let life get in the way- the "Alaska Caravan" I have seen on these pages and others is the fabled unicorn, the white whale. While people might be happy with that, it is a great trip and I am happy I did it. We budgeted $1/mile for travel expenses including food, park fees, etc.- when diesel prices were twice what they are now, and came in under budget. I'm hesitant to post my contact info here, but PM me and I will do my best to check back occasionally.

Thankyou! It was a solid move for the sake of self preservation- Newell owners are insatiable when it comes to information. "Uh, Micah, do you mind crawling under the bus and getting the serial numbers off the tag axle? I wouldn't normally ask, but in '88, due to a shortage at the factory, they took delivery of 8 trailing axles from McFly industries that allow for Hover-coach mode." Etc.

Oops- $65k. This is based on what other Wonderlodge/Prevost/Newells of the same vintage/condition are going for in Alaska. I've seen cheaper coaches, but I've not seen nicer cheaper coaches. Is that way off? I've had a lot of interest, but every cash buyer so far is from down south, and they are hesitant to fly up here when there's not really a lot else they can reasonably fall back on. A few trade offers locally for land and such, which I am open to, if it's the right trade.
