Congratulations Andrew, you are finally reviewing coaches that your average working man can afford. These are very interesting to people as myself…. Good job!
Andrew is the Hoovies garage of the RV world! “I bought the nicest and cheapest Beaver in the country!” It is more up to date on the inside and the outside than the Newell! Might be better to keep it. Much less maint!
Well I pray you can keep both..this was an incredible era. They do awesome wood finishes in Oregon. Gorgeous..lucky Doug. Thanks for putting LOVELY affordables online.
I own a 2000 Monaco Dynasty and for the last three years I’ve been full-time in it and still love this coach. And as you say they drive great down the road.
Hey Andrew! That Beaver is really nice. Incredible that it's 20+ years old. Glad you're keeping the Newell! You sold me on Country Coach....now you've got me even more sold on Newell. Just gonna take some time to figure out how to make it work!
This is one of the few times we didn't get to see the storage/equipment bays. Years ago I drove several Monaco, Beaver, & Country Coach buses which were as good a production coach you could find back then. Top quality construction, the finest materials inside & out, great driving were trademarks of these coaches. Seeing a 2001 in such great condtion doesn't surprise me. Many felt they rode better that the more expensive buses. Someone is going to get a great buy. Thx again!!!
My wife and I had a 38' 1991 Beaver Contessa for 7 years (60k miles) that we hauled our race trailer around with. The woodwork was amazing. It was the old body style and was on a Gillig chassis but got a lot of attention in campgrounds. Sold it in 2007 when we upgraded to our 2003 Monaco Dynasty. Love the Dynasty but I think the woodwork was nicer in the Beaver. As much as I like that Beaver you bought I think I would keep the Newell. Mike
Great RV, Andrew, but timing is everything. If we were ready, we would have jumped on this one. Hope you can find us a gem like this when our time comes 🙂
Nice Coach, depends on what you want to use it for: Keep the Newell if you plan on towing, and consider that Newell still supports its product directly.
Andrew, that is a Jura espresso maker on the counter! We have one that was given to us, very lucky. They start around $1,300.00! My husband took ours all apart and and rebuilt it. Best espresso next to Italy. Have a great day! Love your videos of you and Shay!
Flipping Rv's by Andrew Steele! There are a few vacant lots on I-4 where you can open up a RV dealership with your big dog buddy and start taking a bite out of Lazy Day's! LOL!
Nice seeing an old Beaver get some Love! We have a 2001 Patriot (Brandywine plan) we bought a year ago with 60k that is immaculate for well under $50k, it drives, tows and everything works well hard to beat the value, a definite keeper for us.
What did you ask us for our opinions for if you already seem to be giving in to him ? I love the way he is Buttering you up about your fantastic knowledge of RVs!
Selling this thing hard in this video, I love my 2002 Itasca Horizon. No emission diesel pushers are the best. Easily upgradable and cheap to register and operate.
Nice Beaver Contessa. My opinion is keep the Newell and trade up with a newer Newell when you can afford it. Actually do whatever Shea wants. Happy trails!
We considered a Beaver on several occasions. Even went through their factory. CONTESSA was a very nice model. Not going to have all the latest technology but less to be concerned with. If it was me I sell it and take the profit. Your Newell is a more advanced coach, it's a keeper!
Andrew, I was taught that when you are in doubt regarding making a big decision, don't allow yourself to be talked into a decision that you may regret. I am an older retired USAFR CAPT and would sleep on it before making a decision. When in doubt, not making a decision is also a decision. To thine own self be true! Be careful.
As impressive as the Newell is, any maintenance or major repairs could break the bank. Most RV service centers can competently work on the Beaver, not necessarily so with the Newell. Maneuvering in & out of tight spots might be easier with the Newell. Good luck. 👍
I must have missed it. How much is this rig going for now. I must say, many of the RVs he shows on this channel are gorgeous and seem solid as all hell, especially the riveted body styles.
I have the exact same coach except mine is a mid door coach! I have owned it since 2012 and full time since 2018! I have taken good care of it and still love it and perfect for myself, my wife, and Willy our Pekapoo! Should I own two of these?
That is a awesome looking coach but if I used it like you do the Newell would be the keeper.. That said if the wife and I were in the market for a coach that would definitely be of great interest..
I will always vote keep the Newell you will never find another coach like it such a beauty and rare coach You also can’t beat Newell customer support in event of a break down of any type no one else has that type of support on something they built 5,10,35 years ago with people that still work at the manufacturer that built your coach
So nice Andrew! -- QUESTION -- We would purchase this if still available.. Can you let us know what came of it and how it looked after the paint fix? Please, would love to know the details. Very interested.
Flipping RV's .....no. Stick to what you know, which is providing a very good RU-vid channel. Enjoy life and traveling with Shay and the dogs, not going after the almighty dollar. You have a good gig going Andrew.
We purchased this RV from Doug. Note he says in this video he’s gonna fix all the little things. It had an ABS light on and they worked on it BUT DID NOT FIX IT. That is certainly a safety issue. I might add too that the foggy windows weren’t fixed either.
@@RVingwithAndrewSteele yes we did reach out to him and he told us we were on our own. His words exactly. Further we took it to Virginia and it overheated in the water and transmission fluid which now both need to be changed. Got up to 230 degrees. And slowed to 11 MPH On the long climbs.
Fast-talking, awe shucks, country fat boy salesmen are the worst. You have to hold their feet to the fire and make them fulfill our promises before going through with the deal. Otherwise, they'll tell you that "you're on your own".
Personally I think you sold this one too quickly. I’m sure that many of your followers would have been delighted to buy this Beaver. The cabinetry is outstanding as is the opportunity to have a full bath. I thought you two were considering your purchase of a property? I’m looking every day for my perfect property and just missed the most stunning RV park I have ever seen. It even had a boat deck (unused) with another 20-50 acres for expansion. It pays for itself in under 4 years without any expansion. I think it’s time we all had a talk about the possibilities. Everyone I have mentioned it to has asked me if they can invest including a Royal family. It would be a wonderful place to sell RVs and let owners sell through the facilities. A supermarket, laundry room and massive mechanical warehouse for any repairs needed. I’d be interested in your thoughts Andrew and Doug as we bring some European flare to America soon 🇺🇸
How much was it Andrew? I got a 2001 safari sahara ( Monaco goodies ) for 40k in 2015 , it's my big baby . Disc brakes , Allison / Cummings . 135k miles no problems at all .
Personally, I think if you have a loan on the Newell and can own that free and clear I'd sell the Newell, I would never have a loan on a motor home as I think having a payment takes the fun out of it, Now if you own the Newell outright why not keep it and make some money on the Beaver.
