This is a coach that I liked when I was looking, but the owner was stuck on $300,000. It is owned by an Iowa car dealer. It is now realistically priced at $174,500. I never looked at it in person, since he was not willing to lower the price. His ad does profess that he will take a trade.

    Been in all 50 states with my Vans, Motorcycles, and Motorcoaches. I am now going to try to do off roads in as many as I can. Look forward to many miles with Steve, Jeff & Pam. Hope to get other people involves and we can start having mini rally's all over the US.

I have been towing for 12 years with 4 different coaches. 1. Incident was the first time pulling dodge Dakota and I turn the key off steering lock up, 2 new front tires. 2. Hitch broke a main weld. 3. Pin came out of connection on truck. When you see front of truck in your side mirror you have a problem. 4. Weld broke on hitch. 5. Tow bar was not level and truck came up over the ramp into my Motorcycle. I have also had the base mounts get loose on the truck. I have always had the ramp on the back of the coach and that has kept the truck away from the coach. No damage was ever done until this last event and the truck did 4K damage to the motorcycle. This should have never happen except I was not level and I stop downhill, hit bump and brake all at the same time. Three out of the five were my fault and the other two were probably also from overloading. I always have a Brake Buddy in the truck except it has never activated because the tow vehicle has never separated. Be sure and have the tow bar level and check when ever you stop.I have posted some pictures.

               

Had both windshields replace with new gaskets. This is what it look like by the time I got Home less than 1K miles. I have reset with the instructions of Matthew Russo of Performance Glass as he walk me through the proper processor on installation. I went the wrong way home from Newell is what cause the movement I guess. I have seal the gasket to the fiberglass up both side and across the top. Will be driving the coach to Gilbert WV in 2 weeks which will really be a test for glass movement after being glue. Jeff & Pam will be going the same route so we will see what happen.

We have friends (Mimi and Steven Tyler) who have a Celtic-Rock band. They have been working hard for years building a fan base, recording etc. This past weekend they asked me if I would take them to a gig in Cincinatti, OH. Their gear totally filled the storage bays.
We had a great time...I was concerned that I may have a mechanical issue that would prevent us from getting there on time so we left at 10:00 am Saturday for their stage call at 9:30 pm. (The downside of being the headline act is you are last up and last to leave)..The Newell ran great. The only problem I had was the pressure relief valve on the water heater started seeping but I was able to get by for this trip.
The band members were great...(there were seven altogether, plus their assistant and 3 kids) I really enjoyed spending time with them.
Navigating the streets in downtown Cincinatti was a challenge....The parking lot we were supposed to park in was designed for automobiles so I had one of the band-members get out and block traffic so I could back in off of the one-way street.
No Sweat!!!...............................................................
Well , not MUCH sweat.!
I've mentioned before that our coach was originally a band-bus. It has 6 bunks in it that we plan to remove in the future when I get all of the outside work completed. The bunks were certainly welcomed for this trip. They could sleep on the way down. I slept in the rear salon during the opening acts of the show so that I could be alert for the drive home. I arrived home at 5;00 am Sunday...Felt great!

i see that newell went to a cummins 600hp with an allison 6 speed tranny from the cat 625hp with the 10 speed zf tranny.

anyone know the reason why? i thought the 10 speed zf was to die for and now they are back to the 6 speed allison?

Bill Johnson, aka bikestuff, replaced his VMS unit, so he had an extra. Bill was nice enough to allow me to try his old VMS unit as I have had questions about the reliability of my dash gauges. Most of my dash gauges record readings that are consistent with the VMS. Two gauges are not even close. My oil pressure gauge has always run between 18-25 psi--VMS shows oil pressure as 48-50 psi. My voltage gauge has recently began registering around 11 volts--VMS shows 13.6 volts.

Thanks Bill..........................

This morning around 9:30am we were on I-25 southbound in Colorado, about 10 miles south of the Wyoming border when we spotted a late model Newell going northbound toward Wyoming. Black, red and gold. I'm so unused to seeing Newells that I didn't realize it was one until I saw the back cap in my mirror, and the word NEWELL on it.
