John, please respect other’s rights to their opinion. We don’t mind a good debate at all, but calling someone’s opinion BS is a little disrespectful.

Back to Robert the original poster … Robert, what is your RV/motorhome background? What RV’s have owned/used in the past? That would help us respond to your questions and comments.

Hey
Dick! I would be new to owning. I have rented a few small Class C’s over the
years to go to different bike and TRI races up and down the east coast. Nothing bigger than 30 feet.With
that being said; this is something that I have dreamed about since I was a kid
and traveled with some family friends to Devil’s Lake in Wisconsin.So
I’m asking questions like a 5 year old going to school for the first time. -
Robert, you may think you are asking questions everyone should know the answer to and may even feel the questions are too basic. Believe it or not your questions are going to make a very big contribution to the members.
First, we have far more members who read but don’t post. By asking questions you might be asking the same thing they would like to ask. When you ask questions it makes all of us who answer them think. Sometimes when we have to think about an answer we benefit as well.
When you get answers we all learn by reading the different answers and points of view. Keep the questions coming. It is entirely possible some our answers to your questions may actually turn out to be correct.

Robert: If I was in your position (having limited experience with only Class C motorhomes and looking to buy a brand new Prevost conversion) I would likely try to rent or lease a one or two year old Prevost for a number of trips, under various conditions, and hopefully in different weather conditions. I think that’s the only way to know enough about how you will use a Prevost conversion and consequently how you want yours configured. Its likely that one or more of the converters have very late model trades that you could work out arrangement with. As Mr. Mark will likely confirm, there are lots of decision to make beyond colors, textures, and and surfaces.
As Jon said … keep the questions coming. We will work hard to move you throught the grades as quickly as possible because our end goal is something very simple: Help you spend your money. We can’t do that if we let you down and leaving you sitting in the sixth or seventh grade.

Robert,
Some of these things you may know or something you might want to think about.
Prevosts don’t have window awnings or front door awnings, just upper patio awnings (on newer coaches).
No slide topper awnings.
No front screen door.
All steps are on the inside (entry door fits lower in the chassis).
No windows in the bathroom.
No ladders attached to the rear of the coach.
Only four windows open in the coach, 2 in the living room and 2 in the bedroom (electric louvered type windows).
Huge bay storage, generally, with many built-ins (drawers, sliding trays, etc.).
Liberty’s have a 6 speed retarder, some other’s may have a 2 or 3 speed jake brake (both work well).
Good luck on your search.

Hey, Mark, maybe you should have purchased an older coach.Grin
We have windows awnings and all 14 windows open INCLUDING the full window in the bathroom.

I wasn’t complaining….. I like everything about our Prevost… I was mainly pointing out things a plastic coach might have when comparing to a Prevost.
I like having ‘no slide toppers’ as they vibrate in the wind. Our windows, although four, are large as they are also emergency exit windows. They swing out from the bottom which keeps rain from coming in if we want them open (have done that several times).
And, the previously loved Prevost coaches still look good as you can hardly tell if one is 10 or 20 yrs. old….. they are truly timeless!
