I was under the impression that Newell attempted to manufacture 47' Newell's but the rv industry & laws did not follow suite to allow such a large coach to be built. So only a hand full were produced before Newell Coach scrapped that idea and decided to keep them 45'. Now, I could be wrong and I'm asking that someone please correct my assumption if I am.
