Hypothetically speaking… - BusNit - 02-09-2024

What if a person wanted to sell their 1990’s coach? Main question being what is a good avenue to sell such for a broader audience? Just thinking here…

I would post it here for sure.  Everyone that visits this site regularly knows the great work you have put into it and I’m sure would vouch for your efforts with no reservation, myself included. You may get more knowledgeable, interested parties here than anywhere else.  Hope it doesn’t come to that but if so, good luck!

Here is an interesting story about how we found our coach.  

Believe it or not Andrew Steel actually posted a video on Youtube with someones coach at a local consignment dealer.  My brother actually saw it and forwarded it to me.

It was the first one I looked at and we decided based on condition that it was the coach for us.

We've seen your coach in person its beautiful documenting all the work here and facebook should be an easy sell.

MOT, Motorhomes of Texas in Nacogdoches, TX is a good consignment dealer who usually has a few Newells on their lot along with many Foretravels and others. Mel Cordray is the sales manager and in my experience in buying a Newell and FT is very fair.
They have many sources and the good coaches are often sold before they are listed on their website. They also have sources of financing available.
Hope you don't have to sell but we all face life changes.

simon, since you are local, the best consignment place in the west iis arizona luxury coach. i know steve bennett personally and sold one of my coaches for more money than i would have gotten myself selling it. he has an indoor showroom. he is in north phoenix. www.arizonaluxurycoach.com

i would be glad to meet you there and introduce you in person and there would be no obligation and he will be great at giving advise as well. there are a number of gurus who have either bought or sold their coach through steve.

give me a call

Thanks guys. I don't know what to do at this point. I may just hold on to it and see how '24 progresses.

That sounds like a good plan. You will never find another coach like yours. If the financial world goes in the toilet, you always have a home with your Newell

I'm hoping business picks up, I'm really looking forward to you repowering your coach with a hydrogen motor.

Thank you Jon! I would be first in line to do a new tech power plant. My understanding is they are working on a battery system that is 3x as dense in power over lithiums. Supposedly they are safer, easier to get basic elements for and can outlast the current tech we have now. Hydrogen or electric, if I live long enough, one will go in this coach. More so for the ability do do it rather than an issue with my current power plant which I absolutely love.
Covid has changed the rules on costs and it is slowly making its way up to even the bigger spenders who are my clientele. Time will tell.
