Oh yeah, the depreciation, that word always pops up with anything that is fun to have! LOL!
As we’ve all heard many times, they don’t put a trailer hitch on a hearse. Can’t take it with you.

Just confirmed with my salesman. We have set-up a test drive in the new Marathon at the end of next week as that’s when he will be in town from Oregon.
There is a nice test hill going east on I-10 going towards the Chirocco Summit.
I will certainly report back with my opinion.

I would like to replace my drivers slide window due to fogging. If you decide to replace yours let me know and I may be in the market for yours if it is clear. If not I may also look at the new window you refer to.

We use Big Rig Best Bets http://www.big-rigs-rv.com book often when traveling because of the reasons you have pointed out. Asking the folks here is another great way to find campgrounds all over that someone has had experience with. My kids favorite places included Cedar Point Park in Ohio has a nice campground attached and it’s a very large roller coaster park and can accomadate you easily. A hidden jem in Pa they liked is Nema Collin resort. It’s 2, 5 star resorts with about 30 large RV sites between them. Golf, trap shooting, bowling, mini golf, zip line, ect plenty to do. Our kids loved blue water key in fl, Acadia national park in me. The national parks were great as well plenty of things to see and do lots of hiking. Finding acceptable campgrounds for the national parks can be tough but that is where this group has been great.

We decided that a bunk coach would better fit our family’s needs and started looking a couple of years ago for a bunk coach on a Prevo RV conversion. My findings were that not very many have been built. Liberty had made one bunk coach I believe was a 07 or 08 I do not recall and was only on the market for a short period of time back October of 2012. I believe Marathon made a few bunk coaches as well. I know it’s not the popular thing on this site but our decision was to build a Newell to fit our needs. Newell has a bunk layout as a standard floor plan and part our decision was that a bunk cosch with Newell would not be an anomaly when we decide to do something different. Good luck with your search

Prevost does not use any generators.
All generators found in Prevost conversions are converter installed. Power Tech and Kohler seem to be the most widely used. 20KW also seems to be the most common size used now.

Hello Songman,
Just to be clear, the Newell salesman never compared a Prevost to a Newell or vise versa. The only time the salesman mentioned Prevost was when I asked him what kind of generator Newell uses and he said ‘Martin’. He then said, ‘Prevost also uses Martin’.
He then continued on talking about how a Martin generator was a very respected well built unit in the industry. The only comparisons between a Newell and Prevost were from me to him.

Peter,
Elsie and I would like to take you up on your offer sometime when we are in the area as I’m sure it would be a great place to visit.
It would be really nice if you were to share with the members here some of the really interesting horsey things you are involved in, as most of them probably have no idea, due to your modesty, of the amazing abilities you have taught yourself concerning communication with not only horses but those who yearn to have that closer relationship to all things equus.
Just a thought.
Thanks,

I’ll be in the Sanford area for a wedding on the 22nd February. You can email particulars to me if you like.
Thanks,

Jon,
I don’t know if the Volvo is adequate or not, I just questioned it because of the weight of the coach compared to the ‘torque’. It may be absolutely perfect as I’ve never driven one.
My whole post started as to why there was not an engine option, not to dog Prevost.
The center post comment was just an observation. In the picture that someone posted made it look so thick. We currently have a one piece windshield with the TV above. I’m sure there are many wires going up but obviously along the sides.
I really don’t mind the two piece windshield as it’s half the cost of replacement if a rock hits it. I just thought the center post on the inside could be made smaller (maybe it can or maybe there is a good reason for it’s size).
I know that you guys are Prevost enthusiasts and I respect that. I value all of you guys opinions, it really helps me even when my thoughts are criticized.
Mark
