Hello All. 
    We are so glad to be a part of the Newell fan club. We will be picking up our newest 41 year old Classic coach in the coming days. This will be our second motorhome and our first diesel. We look forward to seeing y’all on the highways and byways. My better half is a first grade teacher soon to be retired and I am the one who keeps stuff working... (Jack of all trades master of none). Henry is our 60lb. best furry friend who thinks the Newell was bought specifically for him. I suppose you can say he has a Newell for a dog crate. 
    I’m sure we will have plenty of questions about Newell stuff.  Our 37’ Classic Coach was assembled in the fall of 79 and identifies as a 1980 model (I would that I could identify as an 80s model... lol), although we think it is around the circa 280? Pre numbered models. However, We are still trying to confirm. We realize since every coach is unique like a fingerprint, we can find a way to continue the updates to the 21st century and beyond... lol.   I think I’ll post NCC1701 on the rear of the coach (NCC for Newell Coach Corporation). Lol exploring new worlds. One campsite at a time. Until we can find the “beam me up Scotty” button, we’ll just have to take it a little slower.   
     Hope to see y’all soon.

Here is an alternative to "how we have always done it".  Instead of wiring my new tow vehicle for lights, I have chosen to use a wireless system.  

The system is designed to attach to the roof with 100 lb magnets.  I wanted the lights mounted closer to where the vehicle taillights are.  I am utilizing a bike rack that I added a flat crossbar to mount the light to.  This allows me to use the bike rack tilt back feature when I want to open the rear cargo door.  

The lighting system comes with a transmitter that plugs into the light port at the rear of your coach.  The transmitter is said to be able to communicate with the light up to a thousand feet.   The 22" led light shows taillights, stop lights, turn signals left & right as well as hazard lights.  The lights are leds that are quite bright.  You also get a 12V cigarette style battery charger to recharge the battery. 

I have spoken with two people using the system and both reported no shortcomings or problems.  Both said they will never wire up a tow vehicle again.

hi all,

i have several cars with sat radio (my g90 and palisade).  i really do like some of the channels.  so i use it frequently.  

if you are willing to put a few minutes into a phone call with them, you can save some money.   i have for the past 2 or 3 years.   i pay $12.12 per month for both vehicles (meaning $6.06 per vehicle).  i just renewed it this morning.  each year i call and say i am not willing to pay what they are asking (in this case 40 dollars per month) and they go through a number of special offers until i find one i am ok with.  and i get streaming for this price as well. 

never had a hard time getting the cheaper rate

for whats is worth
