FWIW, based on the stock number, I think MOT owns this coach as opposed to it being a consignment. I was there in July, but this unit was not in inventory at that time.

Check you PM's.

I don't know anything about the coach except what is in the link.
But there is a lot to like. Solid surface floors, 365 tires, stacked washer dryer, chrome fixtures, low mileage, steerable tag.

I need the meaning of “PM”. I’m new to this.
Any help with how to place a fair value on a Newell is greatly appreciated.

Private Message. Good looking coach. Jason Haskins is the General Manager at MOT and he is a good person. I have know him for 12 years.

One way to put value on a Newell is looking at other Newells of similar years and features. The part that makes it hard is "no two Newells are alike". This method gives you a ball park of what a coach in the year range you are looking for sells for. Pay particular attention to what coaches sell for, not what they are listed for.
My preferred method to evaluate a coaches value is to look at lots of Newells, get a feel for what is available and evaluate a coach's value by what I am willing to pay. This method took me two years to do the research and then find a coach that was appointed how I wanted it and in the shape I insisted on.
No where can you see more coaches with more varied features than at the factory in Miami, OK.
Good luck in your search................................

We made a trip to Miami this week and learned quite a bit.
We’ve (mostly my wife?) researched everything we can find in our price range.
We’re learning quickly how the market/years impact the prices.
Not that I’m impatient... I’m just tired of repairing engineering design flaws on my Winnebago. Whoever buys it will get a great coach but it’s still a truck chassis under a box.
Thanks for the help.

That one is a pretty coach but a bit unusual in the mid-bath design with doors on each end. Not a bad feature just not one that is currently being built. You just have to decide what floorplan you like.
