I would like to spend a few weeks traveling the length of the Oregon Coast Highway 101. Has anyone done this in a coach as large as the Newell 45? If so, I would appreciate knowing your experience.

Did it pulling a 26' trailer with our 36' Newell. Easy peasy. Now the Northern California coast is a whole other animal.

We did it in a Volkswagen Vanagon in 91 or so... THINK TWICE!!! PS just did Route 1 from Morro Bay North in our 38 towing the CRV with all of the construction going on... would not do it again at least not willingly!
Not saying that you can't just think twice....maybe take a "road trip" from a safe RV Park!
