My career has had me "on the road" a lot ! Based on what I had seen when I set out to buy a motorhome I was looking at bus conversions for these very reasons. When I looked at my first Newell I bought it!!! The construction of a Newell versus a commercial bus has been debated many times over the years but I am very confident of the construction of the Newell after having restified two of them now. IMO they are as strong as a bus where necessary and have the added advantage of a low C/G which may help prevent having to put the strength of the construction to extreme test when an emergency maneuver becomes necessary.
