It appears to me the newer the Newell, the better the headlights. And good lights are all the more important after my eyes hit 50!
Also, headlights are an important safety feature. For example, The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety downrates all kinds of ostensibly safe cars, like Volvos, because their lights are poor.

I notice that this coach has the cluster of front LEDs, plus the Xenon headlights. Is there anything we could say historically about how good the lights were any one year?

Hi...I just purchased this coach. My wife and I are proud Newell Owners. We live in Georgia but keep it at LVMR or in storage in Las Vegas.
Regarding the headlights.....best on any coach I have ever owned and I have owned 4 class A coaches in the last 4 years. The dim and bright lights are superb for a motor coach and easy to see far forward and out the sides of the road (we drove it from Phoenix to Las Vegas Monday night). I never felt as if I was driving ahead of the lights which is something that all of the previous coaches we owned couldn't do.
A few minor issues with the coach and alot to learn about Newells. I am still amazed at the technology in this 7 year old coach when I compare it to the 2019 Entegra Cornerstone that we were also considering.
