    It would not surprise me that Ford, Chevy/GM, Toyota and even Chrysler/Dodge got with the pickup truck towable program as a result of the NASCAR drivers needing to flat tow a pickup truck behind their Prevosts (and two or three Newells) with a golf cart in the box. That seems to be the choice of all the race car drivers in the motorcoach lot.

    June 17, 2014 at 8:58 am in reply to: Cost of ownership

    My last 2 coaches were “zeroed” out. I went completely through my 97 and changed every drop of fluids, all filters, all belts, all air bags, all brake chambers, all batteries, all Norgren valves, etc. It took just under a year to get it all done. With the exception of new brake chambers at 5 years of ownership, and new batteries also at 5 years from date of install my entire needed maintenance was essentially fluids and filters. I had a few unexpected repairs such as a refrigerator replacement and a replacement for a failed water pump, but my 8 plus years of ownership was uneventful and pretty cheap.

    Liberty zeroed out what was needed on my current coach. My service requirements in the 2 plus years of ownership have been fluids and filters and one CAC. No surprises, and pretty reliable.

    The bottom line is I don’t like to wait for something to break. If I step out ahead of a needed repair I am doing the repair such as changing air bags, on my schedule under conditions I control. I replace components on my schedule, and I am not at the mercy of a mechanic in a remote location who has never had his hands on a Prevost. But what works for me may not work for others. Each owner has to decide how he wants to manage the maintenance on his coach. The only wrong way is to fail to follow the sheduled maintenance requirements of Prevost or the manufacturers recommendations of other items that also need service, such as the generator. When maintenance is ignored then the cost of maintenance is going to be very high, if not in the repair of major components, then when the selling price ends up far below what it could have been if the coach had been properly maintained.

    Regardless of what happens, call Jeff Rowe and see if he can get you in. He’ll figure out the problem and fix it, best part of it he’ll explain to what, why, when, how, where so that you’ll better understand the coach.

    What kind of generator do you have? Maybe you could post a picture and that might help us onlookers.
