It's been said before that the Prevost has some 80,000 parts.
No wonder then that things go wrong!

I have included two links that will throw some light onto what one is up against when dealing with a bus (and maybe life).
It's not necessarily bad or good it just is.
The two principles are often thought of separately but in fact they are related.
The first is about Murphy's Law.
The second, the Peter Principle, is usually thought of as relating to people, but it in fact has to do with parts and components.

If you read these at all, please commit to reading the whole thing or you will not get the real benefit.

Going through a snow storm today and no slack adjusters to polish, so this is what you get:eek:

I think that one can say that a bus will suck up as much time, money and energy as one is willing to come up with. I will also give off a great deal of pleasure, enjoyment and satisfaction with ownership (MPD creaping out again) and that's why I want one:eek: Need one:D
