Yep, that’s a 195. I’ve been flying it for a little more than 30 years. Bought it in pieces and restored it. It’s got a full house Silver Crown package plus an S TEC autopilot and it does a really nice job. The V 35B is absolutely beautiful. If I had good sense that’s what I would have.

Chip, I really hadn’t thought about parting with the Jimmy but I do have too many cars and might consider it. I don’t flat tow very often anymore. I tow a stacker most of the time. If you would like to talk about it, give me a call at (404) 626-6226.

Don did a good job explaining it, but I hope it does not mislead people into thinking every year they have to top off their freon.

Keep the coils and filters clean and make sure any baffles at the condensing units have not been bent and blocking air flow and you have done the needed maintenance. I don’t know how other coaches are set up, but I can access two of my A/Cs, but two are buried in the center of the coach behind the entertainment center with access difficult to say the least. I never want to go to the trouble to access one.

the “market” is always defined by willing buyer and willing seller. Sometimes those are affected by bank repossessions and what not. . but thats the case. . when someone says they have been waiting and waiting and waiting to buy and they deem it “over priced” – then that means they are under the market. So I dont think you can say they are “overpriced” unless busses are moving under said price to call them that. . if they arent moving at your so called “market” price – then that means you are not in the same market. The same goes for sellers. If your price is way high – then units priced below yours will move before yours will and continue to do so. . .

But I always find it funny when people make overpriced statements because theyve been looking for a long time and cant/wont/unable to pull the trigger because of so called “overpriced” units. . Is it really the market is over priced or is it just priced higher than what you want to spend ? (and thats legitimate and nothing wrong with that).

for the record – i have no bone in this as I’m neither buying or selling. . .

So far the Marathon is running well mostly thanks to Jeff. I’m lucky that ETLC is about an hour drive from home so I can address all those little things that drive us crazy pretty easily as they occur.

Really wish all this Covid crap would end so I could get back in the bus and go! I see bus owners as having an advantage once things open up. We take our house with us so no need to be in hotels etc that may have big crowds and questionable sanitation.

Stay safe and this will get better. A lot of people smarter than me are working hard to deal with this mess.

Might be like my old one here. Thought mine was transfer switch as it would drop voltage,,, cooling fans would loose juice and gen set would overheat and shut down. Replaced transfer switch and still the same. Think mine is Voltage regulator on gen set or what they telling me. Have to pull mine out to get to it. Ughh.

Nice! So in your observation what your saying is if you just cut of the cross support for the 2 piece windshield and install the one piece you should be good?

[Fred F.]

I can relate to that idea. I just finished a front end conversion myself. Bus is at the paint shop now. If you have any questions let me know. All parts I used are original Prevost, including the complete front bumper assembly.

I agree Jon, but just one more comment just for you.

This is for Jon, maybe Tom:

When you run out of toilet paper, use Bounty fabric softener dryer sheets.

Your butt will smell like lilacs

Your butt will be static free, and

for the first time in 30 years, your but will be wrinkle free.

There are 2 thermostats for 110v side 1st Control T stat – 2nd high Limit T stat if control fails high limit will shut it down, Why do you think it’s not shutting off?
