Driving & Handling comparisons between generations of Newells
#3

I have only driven one Newell, my 1982, and from the first day I drove it until today, I love driving it. The steering is true....no play, and if I let go of the wheel it tracks straight. The 5 speed Allison shifts smoothly at 15mph, 25mph, 35mph, 45mph and 55mph right on the dot. There is not a better feeling in the world than setting the cruise control on 58mph, and just hanging on to the steering wheel and enjoying the drive.....of course, if there is some 50's music playing in the background I'm singing along, and Elaine is grimacing.
