The tile and blinds make it look sleek and new. The new bedding is nice too. Very cool updates! Enjoy your NEW Newell coach!

Clint and Fran the coach looks wonderful! What kind of tile is it? I like the design it looks great. Did you have new flooring done in the bathroom as well?

The tile is Travertine. It is in bathroom also. We got it heated as well. The dinette was recovered in black glove leather * fran had them replace the old laminate in dinette with black to match the desk.

The travertine is a great choice and looks super nice with the black glove leather. A friend of mine went a little overkill on the black glove leather in his Outlaw Coach. Don't get me wrong he still has a super nice coach as well, I just like what you guys did better. By the way, nice desk!

Clint & Fran I'm jealous! When your ready to sell let me know I'm still trying to get over how your Newell doesn't even appear to be the same coach anymore. Amazing job done by an amazing manufacturer. What was the cost for your total remodel. My wife is trying to talk me into remodeling our Newell and I'm trying to decide what makes more sense. Remodel or step up to a newer Newell Coach.

We budgeted 40-50K for it in Oct last year but had to delay until this year due to family emergency. We decided to not spare any expense on materials. It is supposed to be a luxury coach after all. Newell's craftsmanship is second to none. And still a bargain at $110 per hr. we thought about getting a newer coach also, but decided it would still be a used coach. This way we have a brand new Newell interior customized for us.

Did you go over your budget Clint or did Newell come in under what you budgeted? Very nice by the way! Can't put a price on luxury.

We were a tad over. But that was due to some last minute add ons on our part.

Having the fitted quilt bedspread makes it fast and easy to make the bed up doesn't it?
Did you get the Vista cordless window shades?

Blinds are manual have to pull the string. But they are a honeycomb black out. We just got home from shake-down trip to DC. Had a blast & really enjoyed our "new" coach.

Good for you guys. If we didn't enjoy our Newell Coaches it wouldn't be any fun.
