Saw this on WOG.

I emailed him for a list of what Newell parts he has. If he responds I'll post it here.

I have been doing some research on propane boost to a Diesel engine. The pickup I am looking at is modified and in doing some research it seems to add 2-3 miles per gallon to your fuel milage because you burn 99% of the diesel instead of just over 8o%... Engine gurus. Any one considered doing it to the coach?

Front Driver Side (right below the driver) on a 2002 is a round Marker Light. Appears to be a LED, maybe sealed. How does it come out.. does it screw out? Where do I get replacement. It's marked Truck Lite, SAE P2PC97. Can't find this on the internet at all. Any ideas?

Ed and Linda have listed their 1990 40' Newell for sale. Those of you who attended the NewellGurus Rally at Table Rock Lake in June will remember this nice coach.

Anyone notice a refresh slowdown of the site when using your IPad ? Safari or Google .. Both slow .. iPhone also. Is it my stuff or something else going on??

Ok guys my sequoia is finally nearing the end of its life and I am looking for a new truck.. My requirements are room for at least 5 can pull 20k and a diesel.. I am considering a ford 650 or an international cxt. Does anyone have any suggestions?

This coach is in good shape and ready to roll!! Newer tires and batteries and all the extras that Newell provides. Please share with all your RVing friends that this is the coach they have been looking for! $40,000 OBO. For pictures, email us at [email protected], or give us a call at 208.255.8734

Left a campground drove home , shore power was working at campground ,plugged in at home no power.. Restarted generator heard transfer switch engage and power worked fine on generator. Turned off generator heard transfer switch click again.. No power. I checked breaker on pole and reset still nothing.. There are 2 lights on the transfer switch litup when I have generator on or off. Transfer switch is 6 months old. The storage area I keep it at is closed so I don't know how to check and see if the pole itself is dead.. Anyone got another ideas?

Hi Folks,

Richard of Newell Guru fame, offered me the opportunity to come to his place for a look see at his Newell Coach, something I could not possible refuse.

He did in fact show me his coach but not until I cut his lawn, washed his cars and payed homage to his life size bust of Elvis in the back yard. I’ve always liked Elvis so that was not a problem. But Richard coming out in his white sequined jump suite was whole new experience.

The BIG finally came in the last song of the 3rd set when he finished with “You ain’t nothin but a Hound Dog”... I mean every K-9 in the county chimed in with a veritable cacophony of sight and sound, it was simply aha inspiring! And not to be outdone his wife Rhonda did wonders on the lights and fog machine!

Now to the coach... As most of you know Richard has a 1999 45’ Newell Motor Coach, but somehow the coach didn’t get the memo. Because if you want to see one good lookin put together coach you need to look no further than Richard’s!

But first let me tell you a funny but true story. One of the first things Richard did was to take me out for a drive. For any of you who are like me and have never looked out the window of a big motor coach while underway I can only say wow! The view up front and to the side are spectacular and in itself is worth the price of admission.

We’re now going East on Interstate 64 going up about an 8% grade with an 18 wheeler in front of us. I’m sitting there thinking “Richard, do you think you could pick up the speed a little?” I mean there was a guy cutting the berm that I thought would pass us at this rate. I no more than thought that when Richard says “how fast do you think we’re going”? So I told him what I thought between 40 and 45 and he smiled and said 68!

I was shocked, not only because we were going at interstate speed but the coach was so quiet and stable at that speed. We were ultimately passed by another 18 wheeler and he asked what I felt and I didn’t feel anything! There was no buffeting or movement of the coach at all. He then took it up to 80 so I could get the feel of it at a higher speed and the coach just sat down and said “yah baby”! It was a real experience and confirmed that I want a 45 foot DP with tag axle.

Then it was showtime... We first walked around the outside of the coach and Richard opened every door and discussed what was there. I had seen all kinds of pictures of different coaches by this time but seeing and being tutored by an expert like Richard is a special treat. We had quite a Q&A and he made me fell like every question I asked him was about the best question he’d ever had. That is a real talent and it made me feel like I could ask away without fear of warring out my welcome. So Richard if I wore you out with questions its your fault because you did too good of job letting me feel you were happy to answer anything I asked...

Then it was inside the coach and what a great place it is to behold. The interior of a Newell is special to say the least but knowing I was in a 1999 coach was kind of surreal. This is a coach that has been loved and respected by its owners. You could not be in the coach and not know that. It kind of whispers to you “I’m special - please pay attention” and I did!

I saw the inside of the coach when we took the drive but now I was seeing it up close and personal. Richard showed me every button, switch and gauge in the entire coach with an explanation for each of them and expanded on them as I asked questions.

I was shown the big things like the bath and a half, stackable washer/dryer, kitchen, and family area etc. And the behind the scenes things like the automatic latch that keeps the refrig/freezer doors from flying open while underway, the air doors between the bath and master and the master and living area, where the heat vents are and the way the heat is generated etc.

The 2 slides were in during our tour and I was very impressed how you could easily get to everything inside the coach from front to back. Something you may not think about in conversation but very important as you travel down the road or just want to go down for the night without having to put the slides out. Everything in the coach is accessible with the slides in...

We sat down at the kitchen table in the coach and discussed everything that came to mind. I wanted to know if Newell is a true year around coach and Richard assured me it is. He told me about the bladders that go around the slides to keep the inside air in and the outside air out! Starting the diesel in the middle of winter using the AquaHot to circulate hot water around the engine for an easy start and the insulation floor, sides and ceiling etc.

It was all very informative and maybe best of all was sitting with Richard and his charming and lovely wife Rhonda. They cared enough about what my wife and I wanted that they asked good and probing questions to get a good understanding of what my wife and I are looking for. It really helped solidified in my mind what we need and want in a motor coach! You know how it is when you hear something and you just know its right? Thats how I felt talking with Richard and Rhonda. I new it was important to them to not only help me know what I want in a coach but to help me understand why I want it as well.

There was no desire on their part to tell me of their likes and dislikes. There was none of that, they made it all about me. And when you consider what the two of them know about the Newell Coach combined with years of on the road experience, I was a very luck man to have had the opportunity!

I thank them both again so very much for their incredibly kind hospitality and helpfulness to a motor coach wannabe and a motor coach shallbe! I’m amazed at what I learned in such a short amount of time. You guys are both incredible teachers and even better friends and I thank you again and again for your kindness...

Just got back from Motor Homes Of Texas and they only have two Newell's left to sell. An 04 and 07. Someone was seriously looking at the 04 and it might be gone also. Couple months ago they had 6 or 7 on the lot. Looks like the 96 Prevost is gone also. They were busy both in sales and repair and it is 95 degrees.
