Coaches nearby
I'm getting to the point where I want to actually look at some coaches. I live n SW Georgia and wondered if any of our members live close by. I'd like to come spend a little time getting to know more about Newell before I purchase. I don't know that I have actually ever seen a Newell in person but have certainly seen my share of Bluebirds.
I think this would help me in making my decision. Any takers?

Stick, there are a number of Newell owners in Oklahoma, Louisiana and Texas. Since you are closer to Fort Valley, I am sure that you have seen a larger number of Blue Birds. I am in Austin, TX. Richard is in the Fort Worth, TX area. Tuga is in Houme, LA. Steve is in West Monroe, LA. The Newell factory is in Miami, OK, almost to Missouri and Kansas.

Stick,
Most likely I will drive the coach to my mother's home in South Carolina sometime this summer, I'll let you know, and if you want to drive up to Hotlanta and meet us, that would be fine.

Stick,
I live in Houma, LA and you are welcome to come to see/drive/ or live in my coach for a few days to see how you like it. You can sleep in it, bathe in the shower, drive it whatever you want to do in it, but it will cost you a steak dinner! We would love to have you come to see our Newell. It has 2 slides and has the rear bath + half bath option.

Thanks
Great responses from everyone. Looks like I owe a telephone call, and a couple of visits. I really appreciate the good response. As I said, I'venever seen a Newell. I think the brand needs good exposure in SW Georgia, especially with the demise of the Wanderlodge plant. I'll follow up. SM

The market for these Newell's is still a huge buyers market, it looks like. On rvonline, there is a 97 just listed 43'6" with 96K miles for $98,000. Looks very clean with updated mahogany wood floors.

Tom,
To the rest of the world 107 Degrees is HOT! I bet your Air Conditioning works good.
