PREVOST RV SETUP/DUMPING TANKS WITH A MILLION DOLLAR VIEW

Always enjoy your time with Heather and Cort. They're great, you're great! Wife and I are working on our plan to move from just coach watchers, to being owners and watchers! Andrew - I think we should talk about you having partners in Texas. Oh wait - we're in Texas!

Similar to what we want to take. One simple question on the fresh water and dump fees if you are boondocking. Do the sites require membership or do they accept a credit card? What is the price range you see for dump and fill? Thanks

So enjoy seeing what actually is everyone’s concerns like how he maneuvers and basically the dump is good to see, because everything is different. I think some of the used Ones like this might be a better choice than a new regular RV. Possibly 😊 if you are blessed to find an excellent one in your price range.

Hey Andrew, Love all your videos. Thanks for showing the inner workings of Prevost life. A note to Cort... He should contact the Viega Manabloc company that made his water valve system. They can provide him with the proper key to turn those valves. Having experienced it already, using pliers to rotate the valves eventually take its toll and the valve become unturnable. The valve is easily replaced if damaged... it took me about 5 minutes to replace. Thanks for your videos..

He looks like he is a movie star and talks the walk! Like how demonstrates the work behind slides. I never go that long between dump/filling water, as accidents may prevent from doing this chore, usually do it every few days. The ocean can be freezing w/ strong gusts of winds in the Alaskan storm frts. This weekend, pre Thanksgiving weekend, many RVers are heading out, in order to get a place to stay over the Thanksgiving Holidays: Baja- Colorado River, Vegas, Oregon, Palm Springs, and Tahoe, snow skiing shall be great. Wonder how they will feel driving this coach/ chores involved, when they are 70 YO> Very educational video......not all dump stations are this easy and many are plugged, once the discharge starts and raw discharge flooding the entire area, including under the RV

Many Prevost owners complain about your RV entryway, when it is raining hard and the RV door is open, rain comes in and the step stairwell gets very wet and mess, plus when it is Gail force winds, the velocity rips thru the entry....some say needs a rain canopy, plus petition between cab/interior, so the winds dont rip thru the coach. Also heard, wish after marketer would create some devices to secure computers to the counters. Campground you are staying, been there, very noisy when the Gail Force winds rip off the ocean, things rattle on my exterior coach, plus have to hear surrounding RV's rattle to the forces of the winds.

@@midlifeprevost1182 My RV door is located in mid length, so do not have much issues. Does your tow unit have a manual transmission, or do you disconnect the D-train from underbelly ?

Now that I am older, most of my travels are to the Desert/Palm Springs, but have traveled over 500,000 coast to coast, except for few states.

Hey Andrew.. Yep Cort and Heather have their systems down.. So I have a question, I'm seeing all of your Liberty/Prevost posts and comparing to other lines.. I've not noticed any w/d units - my last rig was from Fleetwood and I became so used to having it, I can't imagine a million + coach without them? I've made many trips home with the clothes washing which leaves less when you get home - let alone being on a looooong trip.

[@clifflee5404]

Nice. Watching someone taking a dump. Lol.

[@dennispalmer6007]

The no squeak no rattle is because of Prevost stainless steel chassis. I had the opportunity to do a tour of their plant in Quebec. The chassis is built on a jig that secures each piece in place while welding. I had a 30 yr career as a tour coach driver, close to 2,000,000 mi. Mostly in a Prevost. Driving and viewing the building of a Prevost I can say there is no coach I would rather drive.
