Thanks a lot Dave! There are no more deals left for all of the rest of us poor souls who have been looking for a steal of a deal like some others we know.

Guess what........I called the number and got right through, talked to Jean-Lafit Boujoulis. Told him quad slide Newells should be priced $250k or more. He said no problem, he will change the ad and raise the price in line with Prevosts.

After many e-mails and phone calls to Tom at Lufkin trucks in San Atonio Texas regarding the newell it mysteriously was pulled off the market today after speaking with Tom the owner. Missed out on a very reasonablely priced coach after paying to much for our 95 that we were going to sell. I am very hurt that because of someone's interference my wife and I lost out on our dream coach. Mike & Nancy Hoffart Alberta Canada

It still has me puzzled, as I've heard three different names of the supposed owner. I've also heard and read it was a 2003 quad-slide, and then it became a 2000 quad-slide that was advertised with pictures of a 2003 quad-slide. I have verified that it was not the 2003 quad-slide but have no idea if it was really a 2000 quad-slide that supposedly no quads were built that year.

Some other things to note is that at one moment the coach was in Canada, and then it ended up in Texas, and the seller was using an Oregon phone number.

Studying the equation the writing is on the wall, and I believe the answer is a simple one. I'm sorry to here that hearts were broken over someones con game. I just hope there weren't too many deposits stolen over the deal.

Fact or fiction. The coach in question was a 2000 3 slide S/N 1N9458X83Y1011562 verified by newell. There was no money lost as they did not ask for deposit before viewing.

This is one slick deal going on here. I called left a message and got a reply right back from Tom Lufkin aka who know's. He emailed me a whole lot of pictures, told me the tires were bad and the coach came with 6 month engine and trans warranty. He gave me multiple options including 1/3 down in house financing with only 2.9 % interest for 10 years. They have set up a very slick ring to scam tens of thousands of dollars from poor souls. Once they feel the heat from you, then will no longer answer the phone. They even set up a nice little website back on the 10th of the month. They state on the website they have been in business for about 12 years doing an honest business. There address comes back as a M2 industrial site previously used by an Insurance salvage pool that used to attend. Pretty damn small world don't you think. They photo shopped their street sign picture for their website and I'm sure the fishing line does a very good job at reeling in the dough.

This scam was well thought out and a lot of work has been put into it. I'm sure the sale of this coach will be ending soon. And on to the next sucker deal they will go. I could only imagine how many have been scammed on it so far. I know we have save a handful of you a fist full of dollars.

I know Keith kind of feels bad posting this link, but if he didn't the scam would be in full force.............

Oh - here's their street address: 10475 Somerset Rd San Antonio, TX 78211. I wonder if they actually receive deposits there? Of course Tom did say deposits are optional as it is first come first serve basis. No real pressure, but as you all know the deal is so awesome, you would be crazy not to give them a CC# or wire a deposit. You can go look at it 7 days a week. This is kind of interesting since dealerships are not opened on Sundays in Texas.

Clint, you are only joking I hope? Don't tell me you went for a pre-rally special? The guy is supposed to call me back if there has been a deposit on her. The crazy thing is, I have also spoken with previous seller of the coach and they recently sold her for around $270k.

Tom phoned me too and said it was a 2000 4 slide, asked him about the deposit left yesterday, he hesitated and said the guy didn't show up, sounds like bs to me too. Don't get suckered in people!!!!

Well, I guess they don't know if it's a 2000 or a 2003, or maybe depending on who you are and what Tom feels you will believe may make a difference.

For those looking for a real deal, I do know of a couple of them, but they are not anywhere near the price of this super duper enterprising deal. But they are below their true values.
