Default New owners of coach #531

Suzy & I just bought our new coach out of Michigan. We are the third owners. The second owner bought it in 2005, but only put 2,200 miles on it. This is our fifth(and last) motorhome. We bought our first in 1980. Each time we moved up we thought we died & went to heaven. Well we've done it again! We first looked at Newells in 1994 and we finally have one.
I try to do as much maintenance as I can. I just finished cleaning the coach & am ready to begin servicing it. I'm already getting an appreciation for the Newell engineering. I hope with my DIY experience I will be able to contribute to this forum. Right now I am just trying to familiarize myself with the different systems. To start with I'll have lots of questions.
While waiting for the forum to validate my membership I have spoken with Tom McCloud & Tuga Gaidry who have been very helpful & I thank them.
The rheavn username is our Missouri personalized plate. We live on a small farm in the branson, Missouri area. We have full hook ups & any one is welcome.

Welcome to the Newell family! Sounds like you've already talked with two of the more illustrious members of our forum. Tom has been a great help to me over the past 2 years. I look forward to sharing your journey as you learn about what amazing coaches these Newells are!

Welcome Steve and Suzy. You have a great coach and I am sure that you will have many notable journeys in your Newell. Ask away with any questions and someone will try to provide a response.

Welcome, Steve and Suzy.

Don't be afraid to ask. We all have asked one another at one time or another.
