Roger Penske's old Newell
Quite a nice machine I'd say. Someone will probably get a decent deal.

Like, totally 80's dude. I particularly like fold down orgy pit!
Certainly was quite the motorcoach...in its day.

Newell still makes great coaches. Like used MB diesels, they're a much better value used. I would have probably bought a '92 I fell in love with in 2000 at an aftermarket dealer's lot if it hadn't of already sold. It's waay more coach than most anybody needs anyway.

The fender skirts are about the ugliest thing I've seen on a bus. Seems overpriced to me.

How's about those aero-discs on the steering tires?

Its ugly and dated.
The problem with motor homes is they get old fast, plus its got an old Detroit pushing it no thanks.

Did you notice that it said the Detroit had glow plugs. Haven't heard of that before.

The futurliner was the high seller at Barrett Jackson a couple years ago, I am surprised to see it up for sale so quickly. I would think it would be a long-term collector item

The one on Barrett jackson opened up into sort of a GM display for use at fairs, had the light unit that raised up, etc. This one looks a lot like it but doesn't seem quite the same.
