Hi!

My name and Paul and my wife, Kelly, and I have been looking to graduate from our travel trailer to our first motorhome. After lots of research, we've pretty well set our sights on a Newell, likely in the 1998-2001 vintage. The bus-like construction, quality, detail and continued support from Newell are huge draws for us and typical motorhomes feel too much like our travel trailer -- pull that cupboard open too hard and the whole cabinet might fall down. I've been lurking for some time on the forums and felt it was high time to introduce myself. We're traveling this week to check out a few coaches that we've been watching. With any luck we'll come home with one!

We know we've got a lot to learn and a steep learning curve but we're both technically minded and up to the challenge. It's great to see a strong community of support available and I hope to be able to put forth some positive contributions down the road.

Hi Paul and Kelly and Welcome,
When you said you are living in Knoxville is that TN? I live NE of Knoxville in Jefferson City and if I can help with anything let me know. I have own Newell for the last 15 years, 89, 96. and now 04.
