I am a new member and have not purchased a Newell yet. My wife and I have been full time RV travelers for the last nine years. We currently are in a Winnebago and are really looking to upgrade.

Welcome to the gurus. If you tell us a little about the age / features / budget you are looking at…maybe someone here can let you know if they know of an available coach.
Remember that no two Newells are exactly the same. Although there are some basic themes like length, width, number of bath’s etc….they will all be a bit different.
Again…welcome!

Thanks for reaching out. We are full timers and have been for the last 9 years. We are both working from the road. My wife works from our current motor home, and my job moves us around country. We usually move every 7 to 9 months. Usually not just to the next state. Our current motorhome is a 39’ Winnebago gas, with 2 full wall opposing slides. My past career was as a motor coach driver. I drove MCI, PREVOST, VANHOOL, motor coaches and traveled all over the country. I did this for 20 years, so I am not unfamiliar with the costs and maintenance needs of a large diesel motor vehicle. Looking for a mid entry, possible rear bath, with 2 slides, or more. Vintage 2001 to 2003 or 2004. My wife needs a work desk or an area that makes it easier for her to continue working from the road, the dinette can work, but maybe an area in the bedroom would work better. We are pretty open to options, we have tried several different configurations over the years. Thanks

Additional information, 45 foot is preferred but smaller is ok. One bathroom is preferred, mid entry, does not need to be completely remodeled, we are ok with carpet, if it’s good condition. Dish washer would be nice.

Admins,
Could you move this to a new thread instead of hijacking an existing one?
