The ‘Elegant Lady’ needs to have custom sheets made to fit the custom made mattress. Do your Prevosts have a custom mattress?
There is a lady that makes them for Liberty Coach from her shop or you can send her the sheets that you like and she will make the adjustments. The mattresses are rounded at the end corners so the sheets need to be adjusted.
I definitely want a set of flannel sheets along with normal cotton sheets. Nothing like flannel in the winter.

I saw the smashed up motorcycle trailer in the ditch and the trike sitting on the side of the road. There was some sort of emergency vehicle sitting behind them, but I saw nobody outside. Then the road was clear for quite awhile until the big backup. We couldn’t figure out what was going on with the big gap between the accident scene and where the rest of the traffic was. I thought Jon was ahead of the mess. Guess not. Too bad about the people on the trike.

yes it’s cheaper however if you are looking for a different seat with some of the newer options of course that would be the time to change.

In case you were wondering, it looks like a week at Bella Terra, 4-5 days at River Country Campground in Gadsden, AL, and then Birmingham South Campground in Pelham, AL for the time we are dropping Ariel at Samford.
Thank you for the input and your help.

Yes Jon, I have 2 equalizers.

Dale your are saying 40v and 90v as in AC not DC volts. I would think you are not getting an accurate measurement out the inverter if you are getting 120VAC down stream. Scratch in to the metal with the probes when you make the measurements, so you get a good contact especially with the ground.

Dale,
Don’t be too alarmed at reading 90V. If you make a peak-to-peak voltage reading of what’s coming out of an outlet at home it would be 170VPtP. We measure AC typically as a Root Mean Square value for pure AC waveforms. For power coming from our utility RMS voltage would be VPtP * .707. So, that’s how we arrive at utility power being 120VAC.
What comes out of a modified sine wave inverter is not a pure sine wave. So, depending on how many steps there are in square wave that is coming out of your MSW inverter, 90 Vrms could be acceptable.

Sadly, in both of Jon’s examples those sellers were simply untruthful or blind. Puddles of oil, torn seat, and tires that haven’t been changed in nearly 10 years should be obvious, even to those with zero mechanical skills.
We all have to decide if the seller seems reputable, whether private, broker, or converter. In the case of a converter, thier livelihood is based on future new coach sales, so even if they have a bad salesperson (I’m certainly not suggesting this to be case) they will generally make the sale right.
I don’t know the numbers, but I’d guess most of us, especially with older coaches, bought from private sellers. I’ll suggest that most of us had some surprises, but in general I’ll speculate most of us feel okay with our purchase from a private seller.
For the new buyer, once you have found the coach that meets your requirements, go over every system to make sure they operate and hire someone with experience to put their eyes on the coach before you buy. Few coaches, regardless of age or miles will not have something that needs repair or may be nearing service. Just figure those things into your actual costs or use them to negotiate a better price.

thanks a bunch for the info…

I’ll be bringing our coach back to Jeff this Friday for another round of small items to work on. First round was a great experience, I am sure this second round will be just as nice.
Speaking of that, need to complete the actual list and get it into an understandable document (the list I sent him in email was ramblings I jotted down while in the Prevost technical seminars down in Tampa).

Whoa, congrats on the H Diane and Larry. Yep, that was a very subtle thing changing you signature. Hope you didn’t crack a rib snickering too hard. Guess we did things backwards, going from an H to an XL. Well, next one will be an H
Tom and Nancy, after keeping quiet, now I can bust. Congratulations on the new ride, and your going to love the H windows for sure.

The easiest way to demo it would be to have you go to another forum that uses it, say busgreasemonkey, or eaglesinternational or bus nuts or busconversions and just try it. It is a free app to the user, didn’t know they might charge the forum.
If it is something that the admins here don’t wish to enable then that’s okay too, they are doing a lot already and I certainly don’t wish to add to their burden. Jon you might ask Scott over at greasemonkeys if it is a hassle or expense that is worth it or not. I do see a lot of people using it tho.
At a glance the app shows all unread posts on all threads since the last time you logged in, shows any posts to any threads you might have started.

It’s a application for mobile devices that makes using forums useable and convenient. A must for anyone that is on the go.

Bill as for your negative comments about Prevost , I have had lots of work done there and they do a great job , only, once did they have to redo a job they did and it was not there fault , and I am anal as any one, but I watch everything they do when the tech goes for coffee, or lunch that’s when I go to bathroom or get coffee , If you are that unhappy about there service don’t go back , do it your self , not every time you have work done should you be unhappy , that sounds like you are never happy , please be real , We are all tired of hearing about all the poor service you have got , please post something that was good or great , It can not always be that poor , something good came of it some how…. The Problem is not the problem . The problem is your attitude about the problem.
Do you understand ????
