Notes

The year shown is the date of the December 2003 issue (posted online January 1, 2004); the article names no model year. Newell's timeline dates the ZF suspension and steering tag axle it describes to 2004, and an owner-kept list on NewellGurus.com says they first appeared on coach 671, a 2004 model built in 2003. The survey gives a gross vehicle weight rating of 59,580 pounds, a gross combination weight rating of 73,580 pounds and a 308-inch wheelbase on the 45-foot coach. It says the chassis allows up to four slide-outs.
