I'd be buying the coach, not the background. Just because they might be able to afford a $50k+RT for a few pix doesn't mean it's the correct financial decision.

This month they show their coach driving down a beautiful country road in what appears to be the Swiss Alps.
Only problen is they were too cheap to actually take a coach there for the photo shoot. Obvious photo shop picture.
Newell, Cheesy.

And if that is the case who looks cheesy now? Oops...
Another example of some people aren't happy until they have something to complain about. I have to admit, this one goes the extra mile in creating an issue just to complain.
There are 24 hours in every day - it all depends on how you choose to use them.

If Newell is that "good" why not pay an advertising firm to do it right? If it makes no sense to carry a unit to the actual location, pick another one. Are there not plenty of beautiful places in North America to do a photo shoot? If you are photo shopping a pic at least do it well. The technology to do it right is readily available. Don't think for a second that advertising does not matter, it does! If they will cheap out on this perhaps they will cheap out on something else you can't see.

NOTHING you do in life, no matter how INSIGNIFICANT, opens you up to criticism. No wonder the USA is a declining power, with citizens like the poster. JEEEEEEEEEEZ. Doug

In this day and age with all our other problems, is this really important? I wish all I had to complain about was some company's advertisement on a magazine cover. I would think I had died and went to Heaven.

Then why do they have unsold 2013 models on their web site?

Correct, they are all ordered, then built. I've been to the factory...needed a part for my MH, not looking at a Newell...they have a chalk board with a list of coaches being built, and for whom.
