  All the “volume” converters did a good job in the early 2000s. Featherlite, Marathon, and Liberty are still in business. Country Coach and Royale are not. I’ve had 2 Featherlites, understand their engineering, and get good support.

  As a first time Prevost owner I specifically looked for a early 2000 Featherlite. They do not have proprietary systems and information/parts for the most part are readily available. As a matter of fact Featherlite provides a book with each coach specific to that build.

  IMHO Featherlite is not the most advanced or do they have the most bells and whistles. But on the other hand, not being the most advance and having less bells and whistles makes ownership of your first Prevost a bit more palatable. As has been said many times before, taking ownership of your first is Prevost is like drinking out of a fire hose.

  Hi all,

  We just purchased a 1995 H3-40 OTR Featherlite Vantare, we have the Prevost books but nothing from Featherlite.

  I would pay for copies of those documents, cheers.
