If truly 43'6" it would have to be either #315 or #318 although #312 and 336 are 43'9".

Congratulations Pastor Rob,

I'd like to share some experience we've gained since taking ownership of our '07 Newell.  
1.  It is a very complex machine.
1b.  It's very big learn your clearances and pay attention to overhead clearance signs.
2.  The more you work with the coach the faster you'll learn the ins and outs.
3.  The air system is a primary system that deserves study and some understanding.  Keep the air tanks bled dry.
4.  Devise a logical checklist similar to what pilot's use for "preflight" and follow it so you don't take off with an awning out or still hooked up to shore power.
5.  Keep your tires properly inflated and consider a tire monitoring system if none is installed.
6.  If you've not driven a large coach before consider a driving lesson or two to gain familiarity.
7.  Look at YouTube videos.  There are hours and hours of good instruction on line now.
8.  Consider a visit to Newell on your way thru the central US.  Our personal experience is that there isn't a person there we wouldn't invite home to supper.  That goes for everyone from sales, service, and parts.

Have fun, you're about to start a great adventure.  God bless you.

I concur Sandy and Bob. If anyone is new to Newells, do yourself a favor and spend the time to few the Air System Fundamentals video listed here:

Richard gives an excellent primer on the Newell air system.
