Good luck and thanks for the info.

The quality of materials and workmanship are equal in my opionion. The interior craftsmanship and "fit and finish" are excellent in both coaches. The chasis construction are both very well built. Other than the choice of materials and design/layout methods they are very close, Blue Bird All American chasis is built on the school bus chassis so it has steel skin and structure where Newell has aluminum skin. The Newell is easier to work on than the Wanderlodge. I wouldn't hesitate buying a Wanderlodge again or a Newell.

I must say that comparing a front engine coach to a pusher is not comparing apples to apples. The pushers have distinct advantages over a front engine coach IMHO.
