A used Newell, what do you think?
I'd like your thoughts on the Newell's from lets say 2002 to 2006? Would you consider an 8 to 12 years old Newell ? American builds a great coach with its Eagle and Heritage brands and Entegra has ...

Yes indeed, congradulations on the new rig! I just got back from Asheville and do I have a story to tell...
You know how sometimes your talking or thinking about an old girlfriend or someone you new years ago and then you see them a few days later? I started this thread July 6th and something similar happened to me...
Wherever I go I park as far away from the building as I can so I can walk and get a little exercise, that’s what I did this morning. I was I’m walking out of the Best Buy and not 50 yards from my car is this huge motorhome. I mean this coach took up half the parking lot and was blotted out the sun! And my wife says I'm prone to exaggeration, can you even imagine that?
As I get closer to the coach I see emblazoned on the front of the coach in big letters for anyone to see the word “NEWELL”! I’ve seen Prevost’s before but this is my first Newell and it is gorgeous!
The owner was by the side of the coach working on a cooler so I walked up and said hello. I was standing by the door and couldn’t help but take a peak inside the coach as I was talking to the guy. Even though I couldn’t see much of it, no one could miss that the interior of the coach is a humdinger!
I asked him if it was new and he laughed and said “not quite its a 99”! He must of thought I was one of the local morons, I only missed it by 15 years, are you kidding me!
I had a bunch of questions for him but his phone rang and his wife needed him in the store. I asked him one more quick question and he said he's owned it 11 years'. There were two things that surprised me about the coach.
1. The door was on the side not up by the passengers seat and I’ve never seen that on a Diesel-Pusher before. What do you guys think about the side entry?
2. As I was walking back to my car I took a really good look at the side and front of the coach and was just amazed at how good it looked with no sign of ware and tare you’d expect on something 15 years old.
I have no idea what a 1999 coach like that is worth but I was really amazed by it. I just can’t get over something could be 15 years old and look like that. It was obvious the owner took serious pride in it and I can sure understand why... Wow!!!
