Name is Jeff, looking at Newell
#31

Welcome to the group and welcome to Newell ownership! We just picked up our Newell #125 in April. You've already seen this is a responsive and friendly group. They are also an incredible resource as you get familiar with the particulars of the coach. Enjoy your drive home!

Well we drove out to Dallas and brought #490 back home. It was fairly uneventful. My plan for changing the tires did not work out like I wanted it to. I had planned on driving the bus a short ways to a tire shop that was going to have the the tires I needed. Well one of the front steer tires was in bad shape and was flat spotted, so I had to divert to a local tire shop and have tires put on there so I could drive the bus the 1 hour to our first campground destination.

Absolutely, I have been there and never want to be apart of that again. A steer blowout is not a fun experience.
