Default Used Newells with Slide Out

I am embarking on a search for a slightly used Newell, and wonder at what year did the slide out room first become available?

Also, I plan to tow an 8000 lb trailer, what is the minimum engine size you recommend? I will be driving a lot in the mountainous west, and detest climbing interstate grades at 45 mph! Your comments appreciated.

Used Newells with Slide Out - The first Newells with slide-outs are 1997 models. With the exception of one Cummins powered coach and one Cat powered coach, all 1997s and newer are equipped with 500 hp Detroit Diesel Series 60 engines, plenty of power to pull an 8000 lb. trailer. The standard trailer hitch is rated at 5000 lb., but it is not difficult to upgrade the hitch.
