    You are both right!

    It was an easy fix and it was just one wire.

    I took off the top hinge and found that it had been fixed previously by adding a butt connector. The connector had come apart so I soldered the connection.

    Thanks guys!

    The turbo is a no show as it missed the deadline for overnight ship. Looking to install Wed morning now.

    Here is a picture of this miniature turbo as compared with the large size Detroit S-60 turbo.

    Turbo is the silver piece with two black hoses attached. About the size of a grapefruit.

    I’ve been told part is high dollar.

    Bernie,

    My wife and I we’re impressed by the 2010 Outlaw. The cabinet construction seemed to be first rate and they did a nice job on the stain. Floor plan was to good. We are 120 miles from Prevost in Ft. Worth and 200 miles from Stephenville,Tx.

    Not getting phone messages returned nor response to my emails was disappointing.

    Corn
    field, pasture, let it fly as long as you’re not using chemicals.

    Quick
    story… My good friend and neighbor who recently passed away had
    trouble with the county when he built a house next to me involving
    the septic leach field. It’s all pasture land and we’re out in the
    country. The county tells him you can’t put your leach field were you
    want it because of the close proximity to the little branch that runs
    through the pasture. My neighbor says, mister, my cows have been
    shittin and pissin in that branch for 30 years, how the hell is my
    leach field that is 500′ away buried 6′ underground going to affect that little branch?
    County inspector looked him in the eye and said, it’s approved
    sir…. True story..

    Al, Outstanding. Enjoy the ride. You done good. I will handle the money for the tours in OKC. I’m thinking $10 a head. I’ll keep 50%.

    Andy, if you are dealing with a converter or one of the professional dealers negotiating for changes such as Al has outlined are all part of the process. You are not driving the seller into the ground, but you are asking for some items that have a price tag attached so you can negotiate the best price and then go up from there with your required changes, or start at the asking price and add in your wish list items while trying to get the price down.

    Nobody gives stuff away, and the professionals selling coaches understand different folks have different needs so it is not unusual to make those needs part of the negotiating process.

    Yes BV,

    You are right, I have a sticker on the wheel that says not to use anything abrasive. Wow, that works pretty good. I’m not sure what the new coach will have. Less maintenance is better!

    AL…

    Thanks I will give her a call.

    Mark…

    The wheels look awesome if you get them polished now and then… you wouldn’t believe the difference… unless like a few of our more “elite” members that have new chrome alcoas !!

    There used to be an old man here that would come to you and do them… he used to frequent the truck service centers here and I haven’t been able to catch up with him.

    We had the Navigator done several times and wow !!

    Also the Vantare.

    Haven’t had the Liberty done yet.

    Cheers, Diane

    On the Vantare Valance that looks a lot like that…. the patterned insert is velcroed onto the valance… pull the insert off and you’ll see where it is screwed to the wall !!

    Hope it the same on yours Tom!!

    Cheers Diane

    Tom

    Do you gave valance lighting?

    There might screws on valance backside

    Or, you need to remove the shade to expose brackets above the valance is screwed into

    Or, the panels are held on with that industrial strength valance, which are a b….ch to pull apart. If you ever have pulled ceiling panel you know what we mean……..an industrial crunch/snap to reconnect

    We haul our race cars and a bunch of stuff in our stacker and two cameras tell you when something has come loose. Not silly at all.

    Our refrigerator quit working and everything in the freezer thawed. What a mess. We cleaned out the entire refrigerator and filled it with waded up newspapers. The newspapers absorbed the smell in the refrigerator after 3 to 4 days. I can not give you a reason on why it worked.

    Has anyone successfully sold a late model Prevost on Ebay through the auction bidding?

    E-bay is a great tool to get lots of exposure and you can bet if the price doesn’t measure up, it will get a phony purchase from the seller or buddies and you’ll see it back on the market with the excuse the buyer had to back out because of financing. So don’t be surprised to see it sell at a cheap price, it will turn back up.

    As for Royale, I had one and would buy another in a heart beat. Well done coach, simple electronics and easy to maintain.
