(11,063 characters)so we're here at motor homes in texas right now and we're going to look at some super cool news first one up is that 2005 right there here's a sticker on it 2005 45 foot 107 000 miles series 60 515 horsepower when i walked in ben was busy in his office whatever and the people i talked to i'm like yeah i'm here to look at the noodles and they look at me like what i'm like yeah i'm here lydia knowles and i was like i have a new one they're like oh oh okay like i get it i don't look like the kind of guy who would be looking at this kind of stuff but we are here to change that perception green's not really my taste but looking at it objectively it's pretty cool it makes mine seem tiny that's my 96 over there this is just a big big wall there's a good shot of the rear end it's got the updated rear because they kind of went from that one like mine to this one to those and then they had a different style with the taillights up even higher and then the current model p50 big shiny series 60. looks a lot like mine the accessory drive bracketry looks a little different it's very clean got the polish valve cover this is nice this is really nice i always look at the engine bays because it kind of tells you at least at a glance how well they were maintained taken care of somebody who really cares about their coach is going to clean the engine bay sometimes yeah i don't know i just think it's cool i like engines so i have not walked into this one at all this will be my first impression but man look at this this one here this 2010 i think it was that one's killer i can't wait to check that one out but we're gonna go in here first where i just reached like my handle's right here um ah yes air door this is beyond me oh that one's actually got a window that's neat this one's got a nice little desk thingy over there big old fluffy chair because you got to have one of those interesting couch design i have not seen that they have another 05 over there it doesn't have that setup up this booth is pretty typical of their builds interesting cabinet color kind of reminds me of like classroom i don't know it's got the car type steering wheel not the big bus one driver's seat let's see how it feels oh it's an air seat because i just sank into it oh no i just picked back up that was cool mine is not an air seat now i kind of wish it was because i like that sitting here from the driver's perspective got nice gauges easy to access the switches and stuff up there i think they definitely do not use that to watch movies while they're driving um engine lights controls here it's all nice and reachable steering wheel is comfortable simple gauges tire pressure pro that's nice that's a real nice feature let's move on back here it's cool that it still has the cover for the sinks a lot of them get lost or whatever over time especially on these you know a little bit older ones 2005 this thing's had a long time disappeared it never has so that's a that's a neat feature and something to take note of when you're looking at these things if the previous owners have kept those you know they're probably pretty detail-oriented people sub-zero fridge that's killer blends right into the cabinetry and to be completely honest i didn't know i was opening the fridge when i grabbed that handle i should have known better because i just did it in the other o5 but i didn't and that's trick two that's the cool thing about newels is they just put storage all over the place okay then you got another drawer here and then freezer down here fresh ice cubes more storage just tons and tons of storage this is a vented cabinet i'm not sure maybe put coffee or something in there i don't know there's an outlet something's supposed to go in there the build quality is just awesome like everything is thought out and no corners cut hey there's a finish back in here that's all solid there's no particle board in these things that's what really separates a coach like a newell over a box store one it's everywhere you could possibly look it's just places to put stuff that looks like a dishwasher how does that open up here it is okay that's cool full dishwasher and it's totally hidden in the cabinetry and that's awesome i've not seen that before i've looked at a ton of these but i'm not seeing that and the leather around the hinges i think that is awesome that's just like somebody was sitting in here when they're building it and they're just like i hate the way that the changes look it just looks bad they're probably like well dale what do you think we can do about that and then dale was like let's put leather around so they did and it's cool like it's the the detail is just insane they literally left no stone unturned on here pocket door air powered this is cool i've been saying that a lot i sound like a broken record that this is cool but it is cool like man you got like his whole room back here to like do whatever like i'm thinking for my own purposes like if i'm you know packing shipping shirt orders or something i could flip the bed up set up a table here and you know do whatever you know making things out of vinyl what anything you want there's this i've never really seen an open space like this in one of these just this much room just open for whatever you want to do and i don't know how this goes down you got more leather over here a whole way up washer dryer the vent that's cool i have not seen uh the little pockets on the inside of the door here i might actually do this on mine because um right now i just throw my detergent and sheets like off to the side and this little deal here is for the dryer exhaust vent on the side i don't know what this kind of wood pattern style breed of wood would be called but it's nice and bright everything's bright in here the ceiling is really high i'm 6'5 and i can't like it's got the raised roof option the whole way to the front there's nothing really that edgy in here design wise it's just really bait like simple it just it's not gonna make anybody mad i'd say probably just about anybody would walk in here and think you know this looks good rear bathroom with a shower also all kinds of head room for utah guys that's important to me so i'll show it to you too granite countertops same old thermostat door like this mine has the same looking door it's just like what they do i guess they all have that engine bay access hatch get your toilet paper roll on the drawer that's pretty cool we're staying in here lots of closet room this is like the signature newell carpet if you have to open a cabin door on one of these and not see this like thick white uh pilled carpet it's nice i don't know why they would change it it works is obviously this is an 05 so it's you know technology-wise and television is not up to where it is now but you can really easily hang a big tv right there a lot of people do that or they put it down low over the window and kind of you know put on a stand and you can hide the stand and it looks great it looks like it's supposed to be in here central vac system that's nice to have mine has that i really like it huge deep cabinet in here with an exhaust vent that's what these holes are for if you're wondering this for airflow up here over there and on my 96 the ac actually comes out of these holes so they're kind of multi-purpose depending on what they are cooktop down here 107 000 miles 1800 hours on the generator this thing was not used a ton there's no obvious signs of wear in here like the handle's worn out like it doesn't you know you usually see witness marks from like where somebody grabbed the same handle the same place a bunch of times i don't see that anywhere here nothing appears to be like heavily traveled it's not even the the chair i mean this armrest is a little bit more broken in that one but that's that's it like i can't find anything else that would indicate use in here really it looks new this valance light it's pretty neat that gives it a nice nice effect i really like those mine has something similar and what i did is i just threw an rgb led strip in there and i can change the color it takes like literally two seconds to install you don't even have to do anything you just lay the the strip in there and it lights up the same way the same way they designed it to then you can change all the colors and have it look cool so that's something to keep in mind if you get one of these you can do little things like that just to spice it up a little bit same thing up here look at this for mine it'd be really easy to throw leds around this the back side of these to light up that there's probably lights already in there but i want my own color changing ones all kinds of potential in here here's your control panel here this has a silver leaf system in it too that's your water temperature your compressor controls all that is real nice switches they're nice and modern looking they're not like the you know old airplane looking switches like my 96 has so he's got power awnings too that's really cool i always check the date on the tires when i'm looking at these things you the michelins are seem to be the easiest to find as far as like the dot code and see it down here it's got a little just blah blah blah this number here in the back is what you're really looking for where it says 0320 that means that these tires were made in the third week of 20 i don't know i don't really pay attention to the first two but i want to know what the year is because generally from what i've gathered you got a five-year life span on the steer tires and seven on the tag if you're being generous some people say two to three for the front just because if you have a steer tire blow out that's really bad especially this has a 365's up front that's a big deal too having tires from 2020 this thing that is one area of maintenance that you would not have to worry about tires these things are ridiculously expensive i see these back tires are from 16 they're a little older than the fronts but that shows you that these people probably knew what they were doing because you always keep the newest tires on the front i'm really interested to see now that i've locked two through two 2005's how much different the 1011s are compared to this we'll give you a nice walk around here the slide out is open in the back here's that dryer vent i was telling you about looks like a it's fine well that does it for this one i think was interesting to look at um if this is something that you want to buy contact motorhomes of texas it's uh coach number 734 you see in the last three of the vin a lot of times if you look up um like newell coach number blah blah you'll be able to find info on it because there's not very many of these things out there they only make like roughly 30 of them a year so yeah we're gonna wrap it up on this one and move over to that one because we're gonna go in yearly order here so hit that subscribe button and don't miss the video coming up on that one and then that one and that one we'll see you over there
