Hello all!
I am looking for a shop closer to my home in TN or at least the SE part of the country for servicing my coach and not having to head west. I know there is a list on their site of suggested service centers but have found at least the ones in my state did not have that much knowledgeof them. Really looking for a full service shop that knows these coaches!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've seen a Newell at their facility, but I have had absolutely terrible results from USA Luxury Coach in Clearwater, FL, so I'd extremely strongly recommend staying far, far away from them. Clearwater Motorcoach (essentially next door to USA) is only slightly better with their abilities at this time. They will be vaguely honest, whereas USA Luxury Coach will definitely NOT be honest with you. Though Clearwater is probably farther than you're looking to go.

There is a guy in west central Florida who is very familiar with Newell coaches. He started his own business quite a few years ago. He has posted on this site or someone has linked him to a thread. He has a Facebook site but it isn't update too often. I looked through my links on my work computer but don't have it on here.
Maybe one of the other gurus has the info handy.

Just my two cents for what it is worth. ( Not much)
Miami Ok is around 600 miles from you. Most of the suggestions coming in are for shops at least that if not more. If you are searching out basic mechanical work, Tri State Truck in Chattannoga, a small husband and wife owned truck , and diesel pusher shop has been wonderful to us, but then we have a much older and simpler coach. If you need Newell specific repairs, you can't go wrong with the 600 miles to Miami. You know in advance they understand your specific coach inside and out, and have all the doccumentation and many spare parts for it. I remember reading a comment from a guru on this forum not long ago who ended up taking a "posse" down to make his coach driveable and extricate it from many weeks in a totally inept shop. What ever you decide, good luck . Enjoy that beautiful coach.
