Update. There is a mechanic here that thinks he can repair the damage. I am not sure which way to go yet as we are waiting to hear from the insurance settlement department. Our big issue right now is we have the 25 ft Haulmark we use to trailer the FJ cruiser and it also has many tools and a couple welders and of course miscellaneous junk. And we have all our personal stuff in the newell to do something with. All this needs to go to our winter spot in AZ. We considered renting a u-haul truck big enough to tow the trailer with FJ inside and our personal belongings inside the truck but u-haul says we can't tow personal trailers behind their truck only another uhaul trailer and even if we did do that the total cost from here in NY to Yuma would approach $5K. Thought about buying another lesser used coach here but what would we have to get to tow the 11000 lb trailer with no problem to the engine. Thought about pairing down but even if we didn't have the trailer we would have to dolly the FJ cruiser then that would mean all my tools etc in the trailer i would have to get rid of and i use these tools to support our life on the road. So still pondering. If anyone knows of another newell for sale similar to ours please let me know just incase, good to have options.
