New Owner of 636
#1

Hello MotorCoach connoisseur's.... My name is Randy Elliott. I purchased Coach 636 2002 Newell Motor Coach. I have a small dealership in Hot Springs, Arkansas, buying and selling luxury coaches, started as a hobby. This is my personal coach though. My family and I are really enjoying it. We've placed one of the pneumatic slide seals and have two more to do. I have a list about a mile long with things I plan on doing to it. And at list about a half mile long that I've already done. Even though I have several RV techs, I really enjoy working on my own coach myself. So far I haven't let anybody else work on it yet. I'm currently repairing one of the toilets. The hopper is broken on it. I'm putting a water leak on the ventilator. Just had a compressor go out on one of my heat pumps. So now I'm thinking about upgrading it to a mini split. I attempted to temporarily patch my slide seals until I could replace them, without any success. Of course each time it was in a Walmart parking lot. I love my bus though. I had purchased my coach from one of our customers, Chris, if anybody knows him. Does anybody here have any history or information on my coach by chance? If so if you can reach out to me, that would be awesome. I'd love to hear anything that anybody knows or has seen my coach anywhere.

Great looking coach! Interesting there is no generator, like to hear the story behind that.

Hey Jack, it's a pleasure getting to meet you guys. Yeah my generator is actually on the side with the buddy plug in the back. Sometimes I wish it was up front but then I guess I would lose my storage up there that extends. It would be a little bit more convenient to work on if it was up front though.

Randy, check your PM's.

Jack, it has a side-mounted PowerTech generator.
