I love it when a new bus owner sneaks into the forum.

Contrats and it's good to be a NOOB with a NOOB wingman.

If you guys are talking about a POG I guy I hardly think he is a NOOB. Especially given his trading record which approaches that of another POG I guy. And I suspect we got a couple in FL that is celebrating their departure from the TBC.

TRUK would be my guess.

I think JDUB is trying to prove Facebook is a viable addition to the POG forum so without looking I'm guessing the guilty party is named there as a weak attempt to justify having to open another site to get information that was once all contained here.

How about it JDUB, did I get it right?

I never mentioned it in either place. But you guessed right. He'll have that dude sweetened up in short order. I'm alway embarrassed when he has to skink into a campground in an SOB.

I'm happy for him and the former owners.

Yep, it be me! Back making smoke with a Series 60. I purchased Ed & Sandy's Royale and relieved them from the TBC. I'm still trying to figure out the Noob deal from Jdub. Does that mean "nother owner of bus?" Nother is a term from East TN.

We can always rely on Truk to keep it interesting. Congrats Truk. Now in about 5 years, how many Prevosts and Plastics does that make?

Tuga - The CC sold in a week. It was a desirable coach for the CC plastic crowd and it didn't take long. A guy from CA bought it site on seen and wired the money before even buying his airline ticket.

Gary - This makes 6, but 2 were plastic being used while in between buses. My plan is to keep this one until we're done running around the country or Brian decides to sell again!:p

By my count Truk has had a Marathon, Country, Liberty, and now a Royale. That ignores the two plastics.

I'm not sure he is trying to sample one from every converter, as much as he just wants to play with different coaches. It is a disease in case nobody has figured that out. More of us have had multiple coaches than have bought one and stuck with it.

Maybe JDUB was looking at the word NOOB as it is in the dictionary... it also means someone obsessed with things ?? Just a thought Jon?

That's my recollection too, Jon..... I was wondering if the smart money would be on a Vantare next ???

By my count, Truck still has room to explore in future coaches:Angola, Hoffman, Millennium,Vision, Hickock, Thompson. He and Nancy better get busy! Congrats on the latest. Luckily, you found a good one. After travelling two 2500 mile loops over the last few months, checking out 11 busses, nothing struck us, So, we will keep what we have. 8V's Rule!!!!

Pacific, Executive, American, American Carriage, Beaver, Parliament, Vantare, Tescher, Bruce, Vogue, all the converters of Prevost coaches I can think of in a minute. I am sure I forgot some.

Geezz........I can now post again! Didn't want to say a word until Truk & Nancy announced the word. I know that they will enjoy this bus. She has beautiful color on the exterior and very pleasant interior neutral colors. If left up to me, We would still have her, but I did get tired of the upright bass on my bed;). Ed now has his custom closet for the bass.
Congratulations Tom & Nancy !!! See you soon!

Truk and Nancy, glad to have you back on the Prevost side~! If Paul is betting on the Vantare next, I think I know someone who might be willing to accomodate that smart money :-) Quiet Jon!
