We joined the ‘Know your Prevost’ group in Oct. of ’15. If anyone is on the edge of thinking of going you will not be disappointed.
The seminar has gotten even better since we attended and we are due for a ‘re-freshen’ but will have to catch it another time.
GO! It is a very informative presentation/seminar! You will have so much fun!
We all got free Rolex’s and Bernie got gold spinners on his Marathon.

We’ve been to two of them. Well worth the time and the trip.
If you own a Prevost, you need to go.
If you’re thinking about buying a Prevost, you also need to go. There were a number of prospective Prevost buyers at the seminar last year and they said they were really happy that the attended.

Never heard anything about it, what are the dates and where is it, and what is it about, and how much does it cost.

So dry camping has become a problem? We lug around these enormous generators that can power a small town, and we can carry hundreds of gallons of water, and hold onto that same water after we have soiled it. Dry camping for a few days during a educational confab playing with our bus’s is a piece of cake for the capabilities of our coaches. I see no problem.

Good point Jim, dry camping has not be issue for 6 past seminars. If some one is concerned about putting 20 – 30 hrs on their gen, they NEED the Seminar.

As I read Bills comment about the seminar I sense he is criticizing the fact attendees may have to dry camp and maybe he feels for $500 that should not be necessary.
I’d like to address that head on for anyone contemplating attending. First, we do not have any control over the availability of power. ETLC is a working business and while it has a good number of power outlets the customer’s coaches have to have priority for those outlets. If any remain available theoretically seminar attendees could use them, but it is human nature for those that may not have access to power, while others do have access to be upset. So Jeff supported by Tom and I made the decision if power was not available to all, all would be equal and have to dry camp.
I like to think everyone attending, whether prospective owners, new owners or experienced owners will profit far more than the $500 fee in knowledge gained. We three work hard and each invests a lot of hours pulling the seminar together with the intent to make sure everyone attending gets enough from the seminars to make the investment far less than future benefits in terms of dollars.
So if you are on the fence about attending, please register now. Plan on dry camping, but view it as the perfect opportunity to give your generator badly needed exercise, to meet other owners to share knowledge, and to come away with what we hope will be information to help you buy, manage or enjoy your coaches.

I hope my post did not imply that dry camping was bad. I was just trying to answer a question. I have 1000’s of hours on my generator and spent an overnight in Wal-Mart about a month ago to visit friends in a visitor area of MI where campground pricing was ridiculous. I have run the genset for 9 days straight 24/7 during the longest stink but run the genset any time for any reason without concern.

Being somewhat of a slow learner (we’ve attended at least 2 seminars in the past) I can attest to the fact that each seminar is structured a bit differently, and the information, as well as the opportunity to meet other folks with similar coaches is well worth the price of admission. Jeff takes care in assuring that the busses are well spaced so our gen exhaust is not a problem, and our awnings can be easily deployed. I know of no other offering like this for Prevost owners or those interested in being an owner. And having not had the opportunity to attend a seminar prior to purchasing our bus I can also say without hesitation that attending can and will save you some significant $$$$$ and time when you find “the one”.

I attended two years and dry camped. I requested that Jeff run power to me from his house but he refused!
I remember before buying my bus that Jon said “the generator has 2490 hours and that’s good news… It shows it’s been used, always a good thing”! I ran the genny for three days running everything in the coach, 3 air conditioners, refrigerator, lights, TV etc without a hitch. I thought it all pretty impressive from a guy like me who never had an RV before. A generator running everything in the bus without so much as a light dimming. This is old stuff for you guys but was really something to me. I wanted to hook up my spa outside but again, ol kill joy Jeff said Nooooo!
It was a terrific time of learning and fellowship and the food ain’t bad either. If you can make it by all means do so it’s a terrific experience. Just don’t ask Jeff for any special consideration.
Maybe I shouldn’t mention this but Tom suspended my dues the three days I was there!
