    “shady”. Lots of shade from the sun? Or should we be packing our own heat?

    Did Geo give directions to the climbing crew from a chair with a drink in his hand?

    That might work, especially by the time the beer is gone the job might look pretty good.

    The problem is how the job will look the next day when everyone is sober.

    Get the OEM’s from Prevost. I changed mine at 60k and they were fine but did it anyway. Prevost had them on sale in March for 50 dollars a piece. I think normally about 900

    Later

    We have Lithium Ion technology in our bus. I’m not really sure how much it is like Tesla’s but I sure like the whole idea.

    What I like about Li batteries is that they can go to almost zero (or zero) before loss of power (much like a cell phone).

    This is what is installed in our Elegant Lady… (from the spec sheet) 4 – 3500 watt -24 volt OutBack Sine Wave Inverters‚ 3- Lithium Ion 24 volt Mastervolt Batteries interfaced to the Mastervolt Network for
    complete monitoring of battery history. Battery life expected to be 10 years.

    My understanding is that we will rebuild these batteries at a much cheaper cost than replacement when the time comes.

    Our home in the Southern California desert can sure make the electric meter spin (digital now). We don’t have solar yet, thinking pretty hard on getting that as many friends and neighbors have bit the bullet and had them installed. Many of them have zero electric bills. With twenty-six tons of air, I think it would be advantageous to consider it.

    I’ll say “Dito” to some of the those questions and looking forward to your opinions …

    I’m “sold” on the base of the Motorhome (Prevost), but do see a fairly wide variance in the materials that the individual Converters use. I have not seen any four-slide Prevosts in my price range since that seems to be in models much newer.

    I’ll be happy to find a quality two-slide 15-year model at my price range, but I still believe a better choice than a new plastic motorhome.

    For reference, I posted a question on an open forum about “Prevost to SOB” which basically asked this large open forum to reply if someone had traded from a Prevost to an SOB, etc. There were a couple replies which stated some may have gone from a non-slide Prevost to a four slide SOB, but only two replies, other than “downsizing” because of a change in lifestyle. That tells me, for the most part, once you actually own a Prevost, you’re hooked for some good reason. I have to believe “build quality” is one of those reasons.

    Even though I won’t be paying a million dollars for the Prevost I intend to purchase, the first owner paid a million dollars when they first purchased it, and those who can afford to spend a million dollar + on a coach don’t put up with sub-standard products or service.

We will never Párk a 50k lbs vehicle on grass, combined with 6 inches of rain in two and a half days, it was a mess.. Be sides the mud, the state of Kansas using a piece of large equipment hit our bus while towing another. Not pretty

    Pat loosen the clamp with the bolt in it and turn it , do not turn the tie rod end , just the clamp and then tighten bolt and turn wheels to check to make sure clamp does not hit shock , it will be good then, that can happen when people replace shocks and do not check to make sure it does not hit shock or if they did some front end work and did not check to make sure it did not hit ….

    Bottom line somebody put clamp in wrong position when tightened back up don’t worry easy to fix !!!!

    Look like something Roger Penske would have at the race track waiting for him as he steps from a helicopter.
