I have used them many times and general charged around $45 for a 40 footer. They will do the car also if attached. They do used pressure washers. Make sure you tell them no acid like they use on the trucks.

Tom and I are very happy to announce a new discount program available to Prevost Community members from Blue Beacon Truck Washes. The discount card being offered will provide a 10% discount for 12 months and can be used at all Blue Beacon locations. Each discount card also comes with one coupon for a free Rain-X® Complete application. The Blue Beacon web site is http://www.bluebeacon.com/ and on the site you will find a listing of all locations as well as an app you can download.

Blue Beacon is well aware of the level of pride that Prevost Community members have in their coaches. Their washing service reflects your concern by using people, not machines, to wash your coach with only warm, soapy water. You can find more information about Blue Beacon’s motorcoach washing services here: http://www.bluebeacon.com/RVMotorCoachWashing/RVBenefits/.

To get the discount and free Rain-X® Complete you will need a discount card. A card and coupon will be sent to you if you send a stamped, self-addressed envelope to Jon Wehrenberg at 6745 Thorngrove Pike, Knoxville TN, 37914. As soon as the cards are received from Blue Beacon they will be sent to you. Tom and I will also make cards available at rallies such as Oysterfest.

Cards will be sent out starting around 3/28.

Can we put our dues checks in the same envelope to you? Or are we still supposed to send them to Tom in Georgia?

[John]

Don’t send Tom any money. He will just run out and buy another bus with it.

[Bill]

Jon, I hate to point out your error, which I untill now have never known you to make any, but Tom is on his last bus as we have all been told. Sorry to point out your grave error.

Aside from the aforementioned, he made enough on selling me those chrome wheels that he doesn’t need any money, Nancy may want some but Tom doesn’t need any.

I’ve never seen a guy who wore bib overalls who didn’t have a ton of money buried in the yard. Oops, I just described Buddy.

[Mike]

Thanks guys!

[Rick & Denise]

Jon, as usual you are right again.

I looked out the back door the other day and the eleven resident squirrels I have I saw digging up my money and running up the trees with it.

So now I am looking for donations to have a tree service come and cut down all the trees so I can get my money back.

Damn squirels, I am going to quit feeding them.

[AL]

I didn’t say it. Blame Truk. He has been a little squirrelly lately.

Thanks Guys for all the help on the coaches and discounts. With you folks getting all these deals, they’re gonna think we are all tight wads. Now if you could just get me a discount on fixing these Ded Blame Drooping Leaning air leaks.

Glen,

I think your vintage coach requires around 35 PSI or more in the aux system. If it falls below that pressure the three port valve between the tag and drive up on the frame opens the exhaust port to dump tag axle pressure, while locking air in the two drive air bags.

If you don’t require air for any house functions, and you don’t ever raise your tag axle just plug the exahuse port in the three port valve and see if your leans go away.

I made an assumption you have no leaks in the air bags, their fittings or the five port Norgrens.

[Corey]

Thanks jon, Might have to block it up and try that. Never have been under except at Prevost and I think they would have frowned on me with my soap squirt bottle a couple weeks ago when I was their for service. No air use on this coach for other functions. Prevost replaced all Bags and 5 ports a couple years ago 3 ways also.. I think it just likes to see me go bonkers when I walk in the barn and turn on the light. Like everybody has said in Summer not to bad but when it gets cold that rubber shrinks and it goes down in 4 or 5 days in back. Thanks agian Folks.

Thank you Prevost Community
for looking for ways to benefit it’s members.

Every old retired guy loves a
discount including myself.I really
appreciate Blue Beacon recognizing the market potential that coach owners represent.What keeps me from stopping at their locations
though is not price, but it is quality.I have used a number of their locations and have never left one without
gaining major swirls in my paint from worn out brushes used without a proper
soap saturation.Just as bad is the substantial
water spotting from the use of their “spot free water”.Coach looks great pulling out of the shop
wet.However, when you stop and look at
it 20 miles down the road the disappointment sits in.

If Blue Beacon could solve the above problems they would not need to discount
for me.I would gladly pay more for a
great job.Until then my coach is finally
swirl free and I plan to keep it that way which means no Blue Beacons for me.

[Tom]

Dave,

That’s exactly the feedback we need and will make your comment known to the appropriate party. If this should turn out to be a bad deal, it will be history here on PC in nano second.

[David]

Tom

At 39.00 for a coach wash you
are getting what you pay for. My point
is that if Blue Beacon were to offer a higher level service package designed to
minimize swirls plus offer a true total spot free rinse there is a market that
would pay for this. I would be a steady
customer at double their 39.00 rate for this service.

I really appreciate Blue
Beacon reaching out to us and hope that they will consider this.
