    After lurking on this forum for a couple of years we’ve just said “bye bye” to our Foretravel and “bring it on” to our new to us 2006 Marathon XL. We’re on our way to the PC seminar in Vonore. Good timing.

    After one week we think we’ve figured out most stuff such as the windshield wiper switch works the salon roof air, the cookstop dial works the air driver seat and the potty flush works the drop down salon TV. We can’t wait to learn more.

    Thanks to all who contribute to the vast wealth of owners’ experiences. We look forward to many more years on the road.

    Not sure the pic will post but we’ll see.

    We look forward to meeting you and finding someone else that wants to learn the intricacies of a Prevost conversion. This seminar is going to feature a section on changing muffler fluid and how to inflate air bags with sailboat fuel.

    Hip boots are suggested as it is clear there will be some spreading of bovine fertilizer.

    Doug,

    We should connect sometime soon. We went from a Foretravel over to a 2005 Prevost Marathon. So we have a few things in common..hit me up on my profile name and send me an email when you get a chance. Or open your profile to emails.

    Welcome Doug & Mary!

    This forum has been invaluable for us to learn about our bus! The seminar was terrific and a place to connect to other owners when we researched the Prevost bus.

    Now, if you can just get Jon to include an updated power point slide on “how to use your IPhone when surfing the PC forum…

    Jon, I hope the muffler fluid change goes as well as the blinker fluid change went at the last seminar.

    But will the answer be correct?

    When we give answers we specialize in providing answers the person wants to hear. It may not be correct, but correct answers are a bit harder to come by.
