Welcome and I know you will find your answers with this group (or call Newell) - we have had numerous coach brands and our Newell is our favorite so far. We have lived in our coach and had to store it outside plugged in - leave the inverter turned on in case the power goes out and you won’t have a problem as long as the batteries are good to go. You will need to make sure all the batteries are in good shape or replace them. As with all big coaches plan to save back about $10k for tires/batteries/etc. that need to be switched out. Try to get a coach with all the documentation and call the factory about it (although they seem to burn all the documentation at the end of the assembly line! Lol) ... Hope to see you out there soon!
