I have a dash switch that changes from a normal car horn to the air horns.
When air horn is selected, I’ve tried lightly pressing and then really laying into it – both give me the same wimpy train whistle. It was only during heavy braking while I was laying into it did I actually hear the other set of air horns come on.

I wonder if the Starlink Dishy would fit inside a winegard or similar +dome for protection from the wind while in motion.

Your fire detector dried out. Happens whenever I wash my engine compartment.

Thank you, Prevost doesn’t carry them. Do you happen to know which item on Ebay would work as a replacement? There are many options.
Thank you.

No need to worry, none of this will happen in our lifetime.

Good topic that comes up from time to time. The appraisal profession calls this “paired sale analysis” … find two identical coaches (fat chance) that are exactly the same EXCEPT for mileage. One has low to modest miles and the other has what appears to be high mileage for its vintage. What is the difference in price? What in theory should be “value” of low versus high miles? If reliable detailed information and sales prices on all Prevost coach sales was deposited and we could search that database, we could probably come up with a number.
Should the higher mileage coach sell for a lower price, all things being equal? Intuitively … yes. How much? I don’t know. A huge amount, I don’t think so. A tiny amount, probably not. Will a high mileage coach take longer to sell, maybe. Maybe not if its reasonably priced, well cared for, and has little to no deferred maintenance.
We bought a 1999 coach in 2014 (when it was 15 years old) and had 72,000 miles. Now we have a 1999 coach in 2023 that is 24 years old and has 133,000 miles. I often read that its difficult to finance a coach that’s more than 10 years old. Am I worried? Am I wringing my hands and clutching my pearls? No. This ain’t no plastic, sticks ‘n staples RV that has a barely adequate engine. I’m encouraged by the active market for late 80’s, early to mid 90’s coaches.
I would be more concerned about mileage on my coach if I was planning on putting 40,000 to 60,000 miles a year on it. But with the miles most of us put on our coaches I don’t think miles are that big of a deal.
Factor a reasonable amount of price discount into the higher mileage coach, have the coach thorough inspected, and enjoy it. If you’re still hung up on the higher miles, move onto a different coach.
I think miles and age are more concerning to first time Prevost coaches and once they move on to coach #2 and #3 that concern fades.

We are looking forward to it. David Lee amazed us all at the last Eclipse Rally
with an incredible handmade telescope.
