"Dean's coach #316, a 1993, was one of the first, if not the first, all electric Newells."
I found it interesting that my coach 316 had two suburban LP furnaces installed with the gas plumbing to the bay but no LP tank or ductwork. Most entertainer coaches (which mine was) do not to have LP on board when they have to travel to urban venues where highway tunnels are on the route. Apparently the "build order" got changed mid-stream. It now has small electric "box heaters" mounted in the ductwork down-stream from the A/C evaporators. Since I am doing a major remodel I have removed the Suburban furnaces...They look brand new.!
