Great conversation Andrew. My wife and I are on our third motorhome over the past 25 years of RV’ing and each one has been a big step up from the previous. I’m a mechanic by trade and do all of my own maintenance and “zero out” each RV as soon as we take ownership. Our current coach is a 2003 40’ Monaco Dynasty that we bought at four years of age and have owned it for 13 years now. A Prevost conversion is on my very short list of next coaches for retirement and it was nice to hear this couple share their insight and it was very close to what I was imagining as far as maintenance and repairs. Thank you. Mike

Lots of similarities between Prevost and Wanderlodge owners forums, like the ability to post a “help” message and have answers in minutes. That’s even more important for us because we operate our “spooky” coaches without manufacturer support (long out-of-business). That makes starting out somewhat intimidating to the mechanically “reclined”. However, it would be crazy expensive to own one of these if you were using a “plastic wrench” all the time. Most of us avoid CW like the plague because these coaches are so different from regular RV’s. Takes a while to accumulate but having a “call a friend” list readily available on your cell phone is mandatory! Easy to get overwhelmed with these fine machines, but the reward is a coach of unmatched beauty and function.

As the previous owner of 2 Marathon coaches one thing is for sure, they are not for the faint of heart. Nothing is inexpensive and it never ends with maintenance. I once had a service manager tell me that Marathon was a Grand Place. I asked him what he meant and he said "have you ever got out of here for less than a grand"? I then knew what he meant. I've been out of coaching for 10 years now but have decided to get back into a Prevost. I will most likely buy another Marathon because of their service locations and because I know the quality of their conversions and how their systems generally work. All the best to Heather and Court.

Its good to hear that Court keeps extra belts and items which would be handy in a pinch to get things fixed. A couple of things to also keep on hand would be tools (cordless drill, socket set and other handy tools). Court stated he took picture of the engine bay to see how the belts went. It would be a good ideal for all RV owners, whether Prevost or other, is to take pictures of all compartments on your rig. This would come in handy to see if any thing has changed.

Court and Heather, thanks again for sharing your experiences with us. Andrew, great job again. A question did cross my mind about the maintenance costs, though.

I'm not sure that cost per mile is a valid metric. Are you asking compared to a new(er)production luxury coach? Because I'll bet that Heather and Court, for what they will have paid for a top end coach compared to its new price, have scored big time. You should be asking comfort/mile instead. Because we know from the previous video, that the quality they now have is far superior for the money they have spent vs. purchasing something newer yet more expensive. I know because I made the same choice for a 2000 Bluebird and I have a gained a premium coach for a fraction of new cost, with a better quality vs what can be purchased in something new(er). With the interior upgrades to keep it modern, and the mechanical maintenance kept up to Courts' standards, their coach will always keep its' value.
@douglastong32085 жыл бұрын
@@OddsandSods26 I was asking because Court had mentioned all the maintenance costs, but the costs might have been reasonable if they had driven a lot of miles recently. The opposite could have been true: excessive wear and tear despite low mileage driven. Remember that Andrew interviewed a Newmar owner whose King Aire required one too many visits to the shop despite being new? I agree that, in the end, the smooth, quiet ride of the Prevost is hard to beat. The experience of riding in something so well made has to be extremely satisfying.

Great conversation between the 3 of you. Thank you for taking the time and sharing your personal experience. I have one take away that I would love for you two to address. Throughout this interview when you were thanking individual technicians and specialists, not once did you ever mention that you contacted or received help from Prevost. That is concerning. Either you felt like they were not able or willing to help you with THEIR product, or the assistance you got was substandard . As a Newmar owner, I agree with you. Calling Camping World is useless, however I can call my technician from Newmar 24/7 and be on the phone troubleshooting right then. I see constant videos of unhappy coach owners and this makes me leary to consider other brands. For me, the manufacturer must be the #1 go to and if they aren't, then that shows where their level of commitment is for their product. I would love a second interview or your opinion on this. How are you with PREVOST itself. THANK YOU again, for a great video. BTW I swear it looks like you cleaned out your coach to sell it. LOL

Sounds like if you are OCD about having things working all the time, and if not mechanical/DIY inclined then RVing should not be touched with a 100 foot pole. Sounds like fun, but incredibly capex (time and $) intensive. I would get deal fatigue rather quickly. And this is for a top of line set up, I imagine what other lesser brands require. No wonder these depreciate and drop in value so rapidly no matter the brand. And the depreciation curve does not stabilize at any point in time, just like an elevator shaft.

For big machinery there's a scheduled maintenance interval and a wear interval. The wear interval is one of those things that can be very useful in that once you do the replacements you should be "zeroed out" on having to do it again for quite some time. Houses are the same. Houses are the same. On a standard house it's about 15 years. The roof, the appliances, the furnace, the plumbing fixtures. Of course, life rarely works like that and the older things are the more out of whack things get so that instead of one big lump, it keeps coming along every few years. And it depends on the replacements too. Was the money spent wisely and excellent quality replacements and repairs were done.
