Hi All,
Just got done with the CC re-union in Albany OR. On the way back south I could not resist a stop at the Marathon factory looking for a good used bus.
No such luck, but I did speak with a salesman I have dealt with in the past.
Very interesting comments from him about Marathon's future plans.
1) I have a brochure of the new 4 slide H's. First one is coming down the line now. (I have a brochure that I have scanned into a large file, if someone can edit for size I'll email it to them so it can be posted)
2) Marathon now has an exclusive on Valid slides.
3) A 4 slide XLII is due out in January 08.
4) Big concerns on how they (Prevost) will keep these new buses cool. I was told they (the salesmen) have been to several classes on all the new technical changes that have been introduced to try and curb heat.
You will notice on the brochure they are running the exhaust up to the roof and using a whole back corner of the bus.
