Just dropping a line introducing myself and our new coach 582, a 2001 2 slide 45 foot Newell. We have been happy Country Coach owners (97, 36 foot no slide Intrigue, 10357) for about 9 years before hand but have pretty much outgrown it ?. Happy to meet you all and start learning all over again!

Welcome! Lots of experience on this forum with that era coach. Thousands of posts already here covering just about every topic. The search engine is your friend. The learning curve will be steep, exhilarating and frustrating at the same time.

Welcome aboard Jesse! Our coach #586 was being born as yours was getting near the door ?
I am learning all about the different systems on these rigs and there is a lot to learn!
I pretty much read every new post daily to get a good foundation of the info on here. Then trying to remember where it is or find it is part #2 of the solution.
These are great machines. Where are you located? We are in Port Orange, FL which is tangent to the south side of Daytona Beach.

Thank you everyone! Very impressed with this rig so far.. simply amazing. Looking at ordering a silverleaf setup to connect a surface tablet up in front and must order a new shower cartridge for the thermostatic valve. Noticed the Mach 5 headhunter pump errors out once a day or every other night requiring a restart ...must be my ice maker or me using the gravity feed for the tank, might install a small pressure tank. Looking forward in giving it a good bath tommorow!

Jesse,
Being a recent Newell aquisition family ourselves we know that you'll be welcomed and enjoy the fine group of folks who share their fun and frustrations here at Newell Gurus. The wealth of knowledge shared is difficult to comprehend and like Richard said the learning curve is steep with bumps along the way. The good think is there are great people to help you get over the bumps.
Welcome aboard,
Bob
