Newell making History with updated Design
#1

Newell has redesigned their coaches with their new p50 series in honor of Newell Coaches 50th Anniversary. I have posted a comparison of early 2017 coaches and the new 2017 coaches on my website NewellOwner.com. Additional information and photos are available on the Newell Coach website.

All glass in the front. That will be interesting.

Michael - your site is a good explanation of the new body style p50.

I'm curious what others think of the design changes?

My opinion: I think the p50 aesthetic design while new and different is not necessarily improved in my opinion. Whereas when the 2020p came out I thought it was a strong aesthetic improvement. If I were to see the p50 and the 2020p without knowing which was the newer one, my vote would be for the 2020p. Just think it looks "meaner" and faster like it means business!

Maybe it'll grow on me. Only time will tell.

Personally, I like the new design changes. I am curious about the electric entry door. According to Bode's website they do make both pneumatic and electric entry doors but I have never seen the electrically actuated doors.

For the curious gearheads, Bode Electrically Operated Door Manual .

The new look is certinaly different. I look forward to seeing it in person. I wonder if there is any advantage to the electric door and if the air door could be converted.

If you need to get rid of yours to get a new one Doug, I would go ahead & run it out for you until the 10 years is up for Marc to take it.

I look forward to seeing it person as well. I definitely want to see how the electric door works.

Cc you are very good that way. You may not want to give it up to Marc after all that time. Another build may be in our future you never know.
