Saw these and gave them a try - metal housing dimmable white and blue - pretty nice. May put them through the rest of the coach - kinda pricey though…

I’m trying to sort out the cabin/bay/domestic water heater engine coolant loops. It appears there are two loops: one to the heat exchanger in the water heater and one that runs through two water-to-air exchangers in the bay and on through an exchanger under the bed then up to the dash heat. I find four valves on the engine. Can someone tell me which are send or return valves? I’m thinking the two upper are send. Looking for affirmation or more knowledge about this system. Thx.

So I was inspired by someone else who was playing around with showing different flooring options for his coach. We have been talking about changing our flooring for a while but this is a great way to envision how the flooring is going to look. I used google gemini to do this. 

I think I like the dark walnut, especially with all the light colors throughout the rest of the coach. 

What would you pick and why?

Here is how it looks now, carpet in the living room and granite in the kitchen into the bathroom.
   
Dark Walnut with light
   
Dark Walnut
   
Honey color
   
Light color

Hey all,
This is our first winter in our Newell coach. While we’ve been fulltime on the road since 2014, out idea of winterizing has always been to follow the weather. Due to a health condition, we will be stuck in Dallas for at least this year and you might know about the big storm heading our way this weekend. We have heaters in place for the air compressor, water catchment and (lifepo) battery bay, but do we need one in the generator bay and should the engine preheat be on through the storm to prevent the diesel from gelling up?

 Thanks

I'm looking for my FMCA membership number from the mid 1980's  I called FRVA (FMCA) and they do not have records that far back. Does anyone have a old FMCA directory from that era and would be willing to look me up?  Skip Evans Englewood Colorado.

Thank you.

I now own coach 385.  It has been discussed on NewellGurus by other owners and now it’s issues are mine.

Are there replacement options for the basement units in these coaches built in 1994? Basement replacements, roof mounts, mini splits?

I think these are Dometic, but I am not positive.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

I am new to Newell motorhomes, I am thinking of buying one and have sold our Newmar. I have 100k to purchase with, my question to all is I am looking at 1990 to 1999 models or newer if I can afford it. What do I look for, what issues should I know about? Your knowledge would greatly aid me in buying a great unit. The wife and I want to travel more but not go broke keeping the Newell alive. Our Newmar was great to us, but I have always loved the Newell line of RV's style and ride.
Any information you have please share.

Thank you in advance!!!

Hey all. I’m looking to install a shallow floor safe under our bed, and into the carpeted floor. I’ve taken out all the screws around the parameter and in the middle to the motor housing, but it does not want to come out. 

I would not try to cut the hole while still there. No clue on what’s under there.
