Pairodice,
Send QCJ, Chappell Jordan, a PM regarding this Newell. He lives in Nacogdoches and if he has not seen it he will go look at it for you.

Educate me, please. On the salon photos there appears to be a dark line/cut in the carpet that looks like 2 feet by, 12 feet. What is this?

That would be the drop floor for the slide out.

that does not appear to be the original carpet. newell used/uses sculptured carpet with inserts to hide the places where the slide meets.

I would agree that most Newells I have seen with slide to have sculptured carpet, although it does look like the carpet that was in the coach back in June of 2008 when Newell had it for sale as a pre-owned coach.

The carpet looks original but not sure - we looked at it yesterday and it is a nice coach. We put in an offer and are waiting on the bank next week.
The main difference between a Wanderlodge and a Newell: no toolbox and no ladder on the Newell!!! They obviously do not want us working on the coach! lol

Adrian, I put my own tool box in my coach where I wanted it. And the coach is 45'8" and putting a ladder on it would make it over 46' long. Most of us carry a fold up or extension ladder with us. There is one important fact, Newell is still there to help us Wanderlodge is not.

I noticed this coach on another forum listed at MOT in 2013 is that right? Surely they have not had it that long... anyone know if someone bought it, kept it two years and then traded it? It had the same 117k miles listed... I think the odometer is dead...
