2. opposing couches up front. i love that
3. really cool desk (no dinette, but mine has a desk instead too so i like that)
4. STEERABLE TAG
5. new body style with the rooflines.
6. ducted hidden roof airs instead of basement airs
7. super pretty wood colored cabinets (couldnt tell if it was wood veneer or laminate)
8. it has the executive step which is like a concrete step coming out. totally stable. 10x the kwikee
9. i also think it has the flush windows.

Hey Tom, thanks for your insight. Yes, that cantilevered stairway definitely caught my eye. That's a very stout structure and certainly lives up to the air operated and sealed entry door.

Having three little ones to tote around, the murphy bed is a real attraction, especially with the TV option. The idea of stuffing them into the aft compartment, closing all the pocket doors, and nestling in seclusion and comfort in the salon is too appealing.

Tom, is '05 the year when Newell started using Valid? Thanks!

I wonder who needs a lot of beds, Gary!Rolleyes Thanks to Tom's explanation I just went back and looked at the pics again. Now the bedroom makes sense in the pics, I must be dumb as a rock as now I get it. Murphy bed on the one aft cabin slide, couch under the TV on the other aft cabin slide.

Pete,

Don't feel bad, I didn't notice the lack of a dinette until someone mentioned! It's amazing what can be tuned out when a Super Model is staring you in the face! Smile

And, yes, I need beds, and beds, and more beds! LOL Smile

I'm not sure but I think the slide(s) have to be out to lower the Murphy bed. I am also not sure whether only one slide being out will suffice or both need to be extended......... I think that is what a Newell salesman told me???

It's a perennial question, isn't it Chuck, what exactly the coach is like with the slides retracted versus extended, how much of the coach is useable with everything retracted. My wife would never accept a coach that didn't allow her to watch a movie, in bed, with the kids, as we bump on down the road!
