This Bus Conversion is Exceptional and Stunning and Loved

I flew to Denver with my daughter to inspect this 2006 Country Coach XL2 Prevost Bus Conversion. I had been told it was one of the cleanest and nicest buses available. Upon arrival, we were transported to Breckenridge, CO to the Tiger's Run RV restort where I immediately began the inspection. The owner took me through all the maintenance and upgrades that had been performed and I was not disappointed. I even found out that my friend ‪@RVingwithAndrewSteele‬ had already made a walk thru video. After that, we began our 2 day trip driving this beautiful motorcoach to Queen Creek, AZ and it's new temporary home as the owner was ready to make a change of direction and wanted to find the next caretaker of this treasure. So join me as I inspect the bus and enjoy a very memorable and enjoyable trip from Denver to Phoenix immersed in luxury and comfort.

Thanks for watching!

My wife is on board. Who would have thought it possible? We want an rv, and it may be in the cards for us in the coming spring. Last night she tells me she has researched a little and discovered that passenger busses are engineered to protect the passengers during a roll-over, but rvs typically are not. So now she wants me to build us a mobile home...which is what i preferred all along. Appreciate ya

I am a Trucker. That is one of my favorite drives, at least in the summer. LOL. Believe me, that I-70 west of Denver in the winter will definitely keep you awake. Beautiful coach, 😍 🤩! Love your channel. I own two RVs, don't ask. It's a Trucker thing. I was raised in the Carnival Industry. My Dad had a Space Craft. That's how I learned to drive a Semi. My brother just bought a 2008 Monico. I have turned him on to your channel! ❤

Very cool!

Wow what a work of art whoever buys it is going to have a great life

This thing is just a dream.

I would much rather have your beaver patriot any day of the week

Breckenridge, Colorado!!!!!!! I'm "Carla from Colorado!" So fun to know that you were here! What a beautiful coach! "A work of art!" So magnificent! Many thanks for sharing! Nice to meet your daughter! What a great video!!! ~Big C in the DP 📢 ::: Air Horn 📢 ::: ::: Air Breaks! ::: 🚌🚌🚌

Nice coach. Denver has a lot of strange things in the airport.

[@wornoutwrench8128]

Now that is a coach, lovely. I'm really not a fan of mirrored ceilings, I find that they give so many of these high dollar coaches a cheap brothel look, but this one wasn't too bad. I could live with it for the first little bit to see if I could get used to it but probably still have to come up with a fix in the end. I bet it drove very nice.

[@YallAintRight]

I adore the postcards at the end! Hello daughter!

[@AZExpert]

Me too!!

[@curtdawe]

James, these are gorgeous coaches, but man o man ... with the level of fit and finish that they have, it must require a huge degree of skill to do any work on the cupboards, tiling or other "decor" elements of these premium RV's.

[@philw7174]

Very nice. Thank you for bringing us along for the inspection and tour of this beauty. Happy trails!

[@dancundiff3316]

Your daughter is awesome!

[@clarencewiles963]

Best old fashioned that looks so new 😎

[@timk.9827]

Thanks for the ridealong James, Very nice bus indeed.

[@ron7447]

What a beautiful landscape. An equally beautiful coach. We are very happy with our class c, but this would be a great update. Someday maybe. 😊

[@RedgieKeller]

Nice bus for sure, but if I could afford it, I couldn’t afford the up keep on this coach. Thanks for sharing James . As always like your advice and expertise!!

[@stevelange819]

Thank you James and daughter!! Amazing what those Oregon motor-coach manufacturers produced and the care several examples received by those that enjoyed traveling in them while in their care.

[@jlong7696]

I just bought my first RV a 2000 Winnebago Brave 30a, now I've been binge watching your channel for 3 weeks😅 love your videos

[@Adam_Gray]

Your outros always crack me up! 😂🤙🏼

[@st6795]

Everyone should have one!,

[@hddm3]

Wow very beautiful

[@dancundiff3316]

Love your honest "real" content!

[@anthonyb2334]

Thanks James, it’s great to see these older quality coaches. Keep up the good work

[@ggsdrummer]

Absolutely breathtaking motor coach! Great reviewJames! Holy cow, would never have imagined a 2006 coach! 👍🏻😊

[@jimfrazer5428]

Oh my gosh James. I have thought about designing a lift to the head of my short queen to make it a full queen when my slide goes in for my mt aire. Very nice coach.

[@bruceblais7958]

What a dream to own something like that but being on Social Security it will never happen that's why I like watching you people I can dream anyway

[@CAROLUSPRIMA]

Same here. Although I highly suspect that the fantasy of owning this may not live up to the reality. Still, one can fantasize.

[@everythingrvs8285]

I would really like to see a video on replacing an air inflated slide out gasket

[@TimothyMichaels]

Gorgeous coach

[@AZExpert]

We agree!

[@nealdavis350]

Thanks, James! Beautiful coach. Wow!

[@theautotoyboxfollowyourdre9722]

So I completely LOVE this coach!! Like LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!! and I’m very very picky!

[@LayloNewt]

Really nice coach. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@AZExpert]

Glad you liked it!

[@terry3193]

Hey James, I live in Colorado and would have been happy to given you and your daughter a ride from DIA up to Breck and even bought you both dinner! We have a little place in Breck and spend a lot of time up there. Beautiful place and fun. That is an absolutely stunning Coach. Doesn’t get much better than that. I’m surprised that the Denver Transwest would work on it since they have made it abundantly clear that they won’t work on anything over 10 years old…including putting a new Girard awning on my 2007 Monaco Holiday Rambler Navigator but apparently they have different rules for Prevost. They also,will sell coaches over 10 years old but won’t work on them…hmmmm. They have an absolutely dismal reputation in Colorado and very arrogant. I’ve had friends take their high end coaches out of state instead of having Transwest work on them. Sad. Now that I’m done whining….this was a great, comprehensive video. Loved the tour. Thanks for,taking us along! Always love your videos! Take care.👍

[@AZExpert]

I haven't dealt with them, but this may have been out of the Kansas location if that helps. The owner was kind enough to pick us up and take us on a tour of the park too. Thank you so much, just doing the I70 drive again was worth it. :)

[@hectorperez7655]

great RV!!

[@lindamarie6574]

Very nice!

[@tacokid13579]

Wow, what a dream…The coach is beautiful too 😉 😊

[@whereyougoiwillgorving4492]

Great video James !

[@AZExpert]

Glad you think so!

[@christopherrasmussen8718]

I like the brown. Makes me think about an update on mine. I just took it on a quick 1600 mile trip. It’s absolutely zen around 68

[@AZExpert]

brown is a safe color on RVs for sure :)

[@christopherrasmussen8718]

@@AZExpert I got to send you a pic of my interior. It’s so close to that Country Coach it crazy. I blew this year’s decorating fund on a hardwood floor. We even got the same recliner chair. Ours is just a few years before the flush glass windows. The 2005-2009 have them .

[@markstench4470]

James....just noticed the porkchops.....nice👍🏻

[@robertburgess6100]

That is a beautiful motor coach!

[@jordancook1668]

I miss Country Coach.

[@jensmueller6374]

James, with your platform, I feel you should let the folks know that these older luxury coaches may have CruiseAir or “Basement Air.” Why is that important? Because they’re out of business and getting replacement parts is extremely difficult and getting more so every day. This should be disclosed by every seller. To buyers, you’re better off looking for a coach with roof top AC units.

[@dieterlange7581]

Way too fancy for me probably most people as well😂

[@susanpiette7165]

Perfect

[@ProfFarns]

Tigers run is the best! Hope you got to catch the pool area before you ran out. Amazing tour, you're the man!

[@AZExpert]

Next time!

[@dennissprague5172]

Great review!

[@HVASEA]

That things 1/2 the price of my house! lol must be nice...

[@billtorrence8102]

racecar roof deck would make me nervous. could be lots bad going on under there. wont know till its too late. it should have been made a little higher off the roof for regular checkups

[@sheputthelimeinthecoconut629]

Nice coach! Where can I find contact info? I need roof maintenance and some minor repairs on my 5th wheel. Dealer wants to send a flat rate kid up there and I’m uneasy about that since the vent cover they installed flew off on the drive home.

[@michellebarlondsmith6243]

Ohh it's pretty.....

[@Zweigenhaft9]

Lowkey looked like he busted that slide seal when he was checking it…..

[@gruponemesis]

those slides are notorious....double whammy...inflatable seal plus pins ohh nooo lol. My Prevost has no slides...sure would like then though...but honestly not necessary with 2 people. I did have 10 people a few times...and boy o boy...slides would have been nice lol

[@MaryWehmeier]

That looks like a camera mount on the rooftop.

[@gilbertpfaffsr1822]

[@divadyrdnal]

How bad is replacement parts “obsolescence” on a bus conversion? Is it better or worse than a diesel pusher of the same age?

[@AZExpert]

chassis is better, specialized converter parts very difficult.

[@clarencewiles963]

I hope they don’t get BS call’s !

[@dieterlange7581]

Actually very unimpressed with the rooftop deck looks like a pain in the ass just my opinion some people got too much bloody money😂

[@briangasser973]

Not a fan of the diamond plating floor. Looks too industrial.

[@user-qy3cq8tz8l]

Awesome coach .. i hate to ask, but do you have a brother named Titus !? 😊

[@AZExpert]

I do not have a brother named titus.

[@newenglandpats59]

You are realizing that Ward has been a little rough on your Beaver. It’s no better or worse than any other class A. Keeps you busy, doesn’t it.

[@lutomson3496]

the interior has aged well white cabinets and light colored wood always are better, that shower is a fail must be for short people.....someone needs to have a suspension, air lines, brakes, wheel bearings air bags, suspension steering items etc total undercarriage inspected..these can be a money pit, and many are ask me how I know. and expect 6 to 7 mpg..nice review James

[@deddie4645]

Everybody likes to dream... .....but how mucho $$$$$

[@dannachel6980]

Can those fans on the roof be heard inside?

[@TheBuddyandlilly]

I wish I had the money 😊

[@hhazelhoff1363]

Sold, where do I sign

[@Thesaltymedic36]

Nice bus but I can’t take it in the National forest and camp 😂

[@davidgrenis638]

I HAVE A SUGGESTION IF YOU WANT TO PUT BLADES OR THE SENSOR THING ON YOUR BUS GO TO A SHOP THAT SELLS RADIO CONTROL AIRPLANES AND DRONES THEY'VE GOT ALL KINDS OF PROPELLERS IF YOU'VE GOT THE REST OF THE BASE TO ATTACH IT TO DAVID ADAM GRENIS MAPLETON AVENUE BOULDER COLORADO

[@JMB51689]

Jez spend all that money and can’t even get a roof vent cover!

[@hectorperez7655]

@ 30:00 eewww cut the cable ties excess or use Velcro

[@EfficientRVer]

The roof deck seems built for some specific, undisclosed purpose. For normal entertaining, it is unattractive to most people, and even ass-backwards as far as which side lacks a railing. It's possible that a piece of custom furniture acts as the missing railing, or it's possible that some piece of equipment used on the deck does that. I strongly suspect a commercial or hobby purpose for it, whether that is race photography, stargazing, hunting, surveillance, shooting off fireworks, projecting video or a laser show onto a huge screen 50 yards away from the bus, or whatever. It was likely not for normal socializing, entertaining, or hanging out. Otherwise, if it was, the orientation of the "open end" makes no sense. People don't build something that custom, in a way that makes no sense for their purpose for it. The industrial-strength aspect of it could be a matter of personal aesthetic preference. Plenty of people (including those with tons of money) let form follow function. Some people who made their money in industry, would rather have something designed by their favorite welder than an interior designer. The general public would never see it, and anyone who would be brought up there, would get to see that the owner is not a slave to fashion, but does things how they want to, for their own purposes.

[@AZExpert]

it looks pretty similar to a few other decks I have seen, but is built very well, and I had no idea it was there until I was on the roof.

[@Whatta33]

Prevost look good but quality is questionable. That old style Volvo truck dashboard is just ugly. I hated it 😂

[@thomasharhen2168]

Its one big rip off ! If u like to spend and burn money$$$ this is your go to!!!!! RIP OFFF
