Greetings from San Antonio Texas:

Classification "A Newell Wanna-Be"

Rose & I have been camping in a class A for about 10+ years; prior to that our camping style as many different shades.

We've experienced three different types of class A's.

1st was a well used 1989 30 ft Fleetwood Southwind with a 454 Chevolet; great engine in a Corvette not so much in a 14,000lb MH.

2nd 1964 35ft coverted GMC 4106: this is where I got the bug for the bus frame. Loved the DD 8V72 but didn't care for the oil all over the toad.

3rd & current MH is a 2005 40ft Fleetwood Discovery with a 330 Cat; this is where affortablity for slides in a plastice MH won over no slide bus.

We use our MH mainly for rallies and a once a year longer trip.

We started to look at bus type MH (Blue Bird & Newell) and bus conversions (Prevost, MCI, Eagle, etc).

As of this writting we're leaning toward a Newell for many different reasons.

I enjoyed reading the various posts and I am gaaining some great insight into the Newell line

Merry Christmas to all

Investors.com published an article last week that discusses the impact that ObamaCare policies may have on those who travel. The article says that "most of the policies offered on the ObamaCare exchanges are not national networks, so "if you need routine medical services, they will not be covered when you leave your local area," as they were before."

That's not good for those who travel. Georgia had to visit a doctor in Spearfish due to a sinus infection last summer after the rally.

Ooops!!!

Did any one else see this picture of Newell history? For those that didn't, I thought I'd share. I'll assume that is a 2014 next to about a '67 Streamline Travel Home--the predecessor to the Newell brand.

For any one interested in Newell history I found this presentation by our Guru historian Michael Day.
