And then when you finally get it, you will think OMG I should have bought the other one.
The only mistake I made in buying a bus is "I WAITED TOO LONG"
Now turn off the computer and go see the buses on your list.
Many have said it since, but whoever said it first was so right. "When you see the right bus for you, You Will Know It.

Jdub: Could you put a little more bling on it to help it out?
Truk: You mean like this?

Good post King! Jdub and Mango are still searching e-bay for that perfect plastic shield, but Fly Dude spread a little pee on their fire telling them the plastic shield company is DOA.;)
They want the shield bad, but just don't have the gnads to admit it! Rumor has it that Jdub is sending smoke signals to Marathon about a bra for his turdmobile.:eek:

Truk,
You are spot on...I was thinking of buying all 4.00 of the assets of Mills Manufacturing Company, the supreme purveyor of plastic shields.
I am also thinking that curb finders (feelers), port a walls, full moon disc hub caps, flames, lake pipes, bug reflectors, and Desert Water Bags still have a market.
Watch out, I may be a POG sponser soon.....:D

Beech,
First of all, understand that I believe that the Parliament Coach is a fine and well engineered vehicle.
Do you recall the ads at the back of the FMCA magazine that Parliament put in about servicing the Vogue coaches. something about we service alol makes and models of Prevost Coaches except the Vogues made by Vantare. Vantare screwed the Mitchells over and Harvey didn't want any of their Vogues in his shop. He has since discontinued those ideas and will fix all Voges whether he converted them or not.
Just beware of the Vogues made by Vantare if for any other reason why Harvey was refusing them.

Fast Roger:
Your comments will certainly stir those famous rally words.
"MICK, WE'VE BEEN HIT!"
Love,

Vogue Prevost
My Vogue has been serviced by Parliment several times. Vogues were made by the Mitchell group who now have Parliment. As far as I know neither has anything to do with Vantare. Dan

Gordon, Ed and I drove this bus in Angola last summer. Very nice but we had one cost factor that detoured us. The windows will need to be replaced through out. And the windows may not be available for awhile due to some manufacture problem. The price has come down but the owner at the time we saw it wasn't willing to negotiate down at all. It has been on the market for awhile. Drove nicely. Prevost indicated to us that this particular bus was one of the first or second XLII buses they had built. My personal reason that I didn't want it was a woman's view---the bus had been used alot by the owners children(for partying) and I don't think that they ever cleaned any of the wood in the interior. Of course, these are things that could have been replaced. But, I have a saying, if you can see clearly that cleaning wasn't done much, what about the things you CAN'T see???????

Gordon, I was referring to the XLII Royale with the bunks.
