Ok, first if this coach doesn't sell in 2.5 months we might buy it (at a lower price)...
This is not to say this coach is overpriced. They just put in the 'good pictures' on the website today. When this coach came in this week it was instantly sale pending. Financing fell through, so I got more interested. The few pics at the time didn't thrill me. The new ones are much better.

Newell #1233

I have the link to google pics that they sent me - pictures from MOT

This coach meets most of what I'm looking for. I really like the subdued exterior paint scheme. I prefer a mid entry as the wife can't walk far, and front entry coaches I've know had more wind noise. I'm really looking more for an 05 or preferably 06 to keep the price under 300K and this one will likely sell a bit above 400K...

So If I can't get it, I hope someone here will.

I have a 1974 40' Newell for sale. It was the first Newell ever built with a tag axle. It has a Cummins 903 from the factory. I have owned it for almost 20 years, it was running when I parked it 10+ years ago (I partnered with a buddy on a newer coach). It has cosmetic damage at right rear corner. It will need filters, batteries and a mechanic to get it running. It will need new tires to travel safely. Needs painting. Located in Fredericksburg VA. $15,000 or best offer. (540) 840-6910.

Is there any place other the Newell ie cheaper to get a driver's side windshield for my 92 Newell?

Not that we are in the market for a new or late model coach.....
I do have a question for the Gurus.  As we all know, a new coach has a two year warranty.  Also, Newell has a two year warranty on their late model used coaches (that qualify).  What is it that "qualifies" a used coach for the two year warranty?  Then does Newell extend to an owner of new coach an additional two year warranty (with the same qualificaions) just as they would do for a late model used coach?

Hello Everyone,

Wanted to post this incase anyone else may be looking to replace their fog lights as they are prone to fading badly. I’ll post pics which includes part numbers.

Hello, My name is Scott Willett and I recently purchased a 2013 Newell (coach #1459) My wife Kelly and I are looking forward to traveling the country for the next couple of years.

Just finished up a camera/monitor install on the coach this weekend and thought I would share the process with everyone. 
It had been my intent to do this shortly after we bought the coach because the picture quality  was really bad. But you all know how it goes, other things pop up and this became less important. Recently it percolated back to the top of the list as my monitor lost video signal.
I had power at the monitor and a good connection of the cable at the monitor and camera. Upon further investigation I discovered that whoever installed the last system actually ran the cable (from the camera to the monitor) down inside the rear cap and underneath the full length of the coach (I swear) and then up through the floor to the monitor. I have been under my coach a couple times and never noticed it before. It looks like one of the plastic wire ties that was used to secure the cable finally failed, or something snagged it. Either way, it was toast and gave me a good excuse to install a new system.

I have a friend who works for a German company that makes cameras and monitors and he hooked me up with some new high tech equipment. 

10" Full digital touch screen display. Resolution is 1280 x720 (to put that into perspective. my old display resolution was 320 x 234). 
1.2 MP Digital Ethernet Camera

Started off by taking the center console apart to get the old monitor out. I was a little concerned that the 10" monitor was going to be too big. No where on the dash or hanging overhead really made sense. Anywhere on the dash would have blocked too much direct vision and if I hung from the bottom of the overhead cabinets, I would have had the power and camera cables hanging down as well. Finally decided to install it in same place as the current monitor. The challenge was how to mount it since there is no way a 10" display is going to fit in the same hole the 7" was sitting in. Decided to use a dual ball-joint RAM mount (see pic) and mounted it inside the hole. This allowed me to adjust the monitor position so that there was no interference with the center console lid or switches. 

I also decided to run the cable the proper way this time. This required removing the valences and the corner covers to access the harness runs. Had to remove the access panels in the closets and cabinets as well. A little tight every now and then but not overly complicated. This was a first for me and it was a great learning experience. 

Mounting the camera was pretty straight forward. A few minor tweaks and all was done. The end result is awesome. I am posting a bunch of pictures and tried to get some with the picture shown in the monitor.

Noticed that our midship pocket door (separates kitchen from bathroom room area) has developed a hiss and air leak only when open, closed the air leak stops. Pretty new to Newells, so learning! Guessing it's the air cylinder is leaking on the open side, so my question is 1, to gain access to the mechanism you remove the mirror above the door to get to the screws but how do you get to the actuator? It looks like it's in the toilet room above the medicine cabinet above the toilet but I see no visible way to disassemble....help? And question 2, source for the parts thanks!!!!!!

So this is probably covered in a thread somewhere in here but I am not sure what to even look for.
Up to now, I have had zero issues with my generator (Kohler 12.5K). It has always started right off and has run smooth. 
This was not the case today. I noticed right off the bat that it was very sluggish when I tried to start it. It finally took hold and started then shut off. I tried again and the same thing happened. Strange.
I decided to start the engine and then tried the generator again. This time it started up fine and ran smooth. I shut the engine down and it  right on running (smoothly). I let it run for awhile and then shut it down. I gave it a few minutes then tried to start it again. Same thing as before (started then shut down). So I started the engine again and then the genny. It started right up and kept running after I shut the engine off. Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing the problem? 

Thanks for your help.

Hello, 

I was wondering if anyone out there has, had or knows someone who owns an RV Lot within a Resort somewhere. We are considering purchasing a few in notable resorts across the US, but have no experience in this sector of real estate (we have plenty of experience with commercial and residential real estate). Some of my questions involve the following:

Is it worth it?
Does it make traveling more convenient if you own lots at least in "4 corners" of the US?
Does renting the lot (when not owner occupied, of course) help bring a balance to the monetary investment calculation?
Where would you love to rent a lot?
What would you consider to be "the pros" to this strategy?
What would you consider to be "the cons" to this strategy?
If you are an owner, what, if any, about the ownership do you regret? 
If you are an owner, what would you change about your ownership?

Any other thoughts would be much appreciated, as we continue to go forward on this new journey!
