Newell Coach Factory Tour: Hand Built In Oklahoma! (2+ Million Dollar RV Build)

What happens here

After the water test, interior components begin to be installed. This includes extensive house wiring—approximately 7 miles of wiring per coach—and the installation of fixtures like a washer and dryer. The presenter demonstrates how the ceiling is completed first, then other elements are installed downwards. He points out an individual working on the dashboard, illustrating the detail involved. The interior is shown with some cabinetry and lighting already installed, indicating that much of the finishing work is done in parallel or in stages. The process is highly dependent on skilled craftsmen, with many employees trained in-house, ensuring a high level of expertise in every step.

Goal: Detail the installation of extensive interior wiring, appliances, and finishes.
