I looked at both as well. There's no denying that the BlueBird is very stout but I prefer the aluminum construction of the Newell over BlueBird. I have never worked on a BlueBird but it appears to me that the older Newells are a bit simpler to work on. Also, for what it's worth I can call Newell and actually talk to the guys who built my 1993 Newell. As far as maintenance cost I would say there is very little difference.

when I bought my current coach, it took less then 30 days to sell my 88. seems that both brands move quickly, if realistically priced.

The choice should be simple... If you have many years experience and you are very mechanical then buy either, if not , buy the Newell because there is only support for DIY on the Bird and Parliament is not the answer for tech support if any serious problem occurs. Only Newell for me either way.

I've found that Newells are easier to access stuff for maintenance or repairs due to the construction. Do a search on Bluebirds for things like water heaters, faucets, water and waste tanks, and other things that might need replacing. Also Bluebirds have a lot of redundant systems which are nice until they start with problems. Bluebirds are nice coaches, and like most others here were on my short list.
