Here at FMCA and no Newell display? We had 4 coaches that could have fill the spot left empty by Newell........ Didn't look like a good business move?
What do I know............. Maybe Newell has more business than they can handle? :o

Express1,
I'd be interested in your first hand perception of new trends in the class A market since you'll see the new stuff being offered. Bigger? Smaller? Cheaper? New products? ETC................

Not real sure what the trend may be. However within 5 hours of the new coach display opening. A 1994 Newell 45'; sold for 115,000. It must have been the first sale of the FMCA SHOW. I thought about pulling mine in its place just to have another Newell up front......;)

Express1,
Not sure you have to worry about Newell. I arrived at the factory at noon & all camping spots are full. I am the oldest coach here. There are only three coaches that are not the "new style". I've spoken to lots of owners and they are all "happy campers". Newell must be doing something right. I hope no one is offended when I wear my "trailer trash" t shirt tomorrow!

Not for Newell quality, but the fact that there was not new coach to be shown at the biggest FMCA Rally of the year just did not seem like good a sales program. The old Newell was most likely the FIRST coach sold at the entire Rally. It was the only Newell for sale!

But now that you've brought it up!
Most Tiffin owners brag about the service they get at the alabama plant!
But the fact that there are so many in LINE also makes one wonder:unsure:

I have a Name Tag that says "My Home Park is Walmart" but no Trailer Trash T Shirt, maybe I should start looking.
