Mark, I certainly did not take from your post that you were dogging Marathon’s. I know you are not that type of a person at all. But again my advice for 1st time Prevost buyers, just as yourself, if it feels good go for it.

Hey Dave,
Tell me what you like about the seperate tanks?

Steve,
Don’t listen to Tim, instead pay close attention to what Rita says.:)

Independent owner / operators of NAPA stores have the choice to participate in the program. It is solely the owners choice. Company owned stores are all enrolled.
Its beyond reasonable logic to figure out why NAPA would spend thousands of dollars to fund a program to bring customers like yourself into the store and then turned away.
I also blame the company sales people for not promoting the benefits to NAPA store owners.

Since I have not taken delivery of my coach, I was going to keep my comments to myself. However, people who know me, know that keeping my comments to myself is as likely as having a politician tell the truth, so here goes…
Rereading the original post, Mike says he heard a “POP” and a minute long “WHOOSH”. To me, a pop does not sound like a relay sticking or a check valve sticking. It sounds like something ruptured (hose, air bag, etc.) The minute long whoosh sounds like a bleed out. Not having the experience with my coach, as yet, I yield to the experienced owners to tell me what size leak would bleed the entire Aux system in a minute.
My first reaction, on hearing the pop, would be to try and establish if it came from the front or back, the right side or left side, or possibly the engine compartment (belt tensioner) system. To me, it sounds like some hose may have popped loose, but that would not make much of a pop sound, rather just the whoosh bleed down, so I would lean toward some hose, or bag rupturing. Coach leaning? Air bag. Mike says not leaning??? Again I yield to the experts.
When I get to the seminar this weekend, I will give Jon three pennies. That, along with my two cents here, will give him a nickle to buy flea repellant.

Bernie, just to be accurate, I don’t think there is a single coach built that meets the plumbing codes. If your coach has a tank flushing system it fails every known standard for example.
I really doubt that separating black and gray is a plumbing code requirement since most states usually adopt one of the prevailing model codes and then modify it as required if the state has special needs. I am not aware of a single state that has a two system sewer, one for gray and one for black. In every code I am aware of the shower and the toilet all go into the same lateral to the municipal sewer system.

Speaking of mirror shake, the worst time I have with them is when I am backing up at an idle.
I have to tip in the throttle just a hair to clear them up. Torsional vibration, Normal? Worn engine or trans mounts ? -
Billy,
Hug
your mirrors daily and thank them for not shaking or having the
chrome fall off, you are one of the lucky ones. How’s your chrome,
especially around the bolt holes?If
no one complains on forums like this, the problem just get’s ignored
or people accept the fact their million dollar Prevost is suppose to
have shaky mirrors and bad chrome because the mirror manufacturer
chose to send their mirrors to Mexico for chrome because it’s cheap.
There’s a pattern here, I have had 6 Prevosts ranging from 94 to
02 and everyone had shaky, corroding mirrors. Prior to my Prevost
days, I had 3 different plastic CC’s and don’t recall any mirror
issues. This mirror problem has been going on for many years, yet
nothing gets done to correct the problem. Granted, Ramco did try the
new motor, but that didn’t work either.Our
buses are the best there is, no comparison, but components used in
manufacturing that don’t hold up as intended should be addressed and
complained about, even if no one is listening.Like
you, I just completed a 6000 mile trip and had no issues other than a
few small items and was very happy going down the road with my
mirrors averaging everything out.:) -
Yes Buddy… come to Nacogdoches and we’ll get together !!

I’m not sure how to interpret your post?!? We ship our engines on steel tubing frames that we build ourselves that are bolt down for safe travel and and have never had a issue. When you refer to a “pallet” it sounds like you believe we ship $20,000 engines on a pallet made of wood and nails.

Richard, did you ask for your PC discount ? that doesn’t sound right. Waterfront is 110 w/discount. We like the inland side because of noise from air boats. 105 w/discount. Geo.
