Dont look at any XLII that hasnt had the approved Prevost Patch Panel Rivet repair for “delam” completed. Otherwise, if work needs to ge done, a minimum of $28K plus paintingbif no need for panel replacement. Or $42K to replace all panels if unsalvageable, plus paint if paying out of pocket. In our opinion, its not “if but, when” the repair will be needed. We owned an 2002 Marathon XLII single slide from 2002-2004. In two years of ownership, Prevost tried to glue it back together 5 times. This was before PAtch/Panel repair was created. We had panels “flapping” in the breeze while driving, only to have duct tape on it so not to loose them. We now stick with coaches with RIVETS. Imagine seeing duct tape on a brand new bus. Eek!
