Once again, this is simply a personal opinion, and not based on any facts.

I would choose the Marathon. I have met many Marathon owners who are very happy not only with their busses but also the service that they have received by the company after the purchase.

Speaking from personal experience, we are currently at Marathon Coach picking up our 2000 Liberty. I cannot speak highly enough of the skills of the technicians addressing all the little issues that have surfaced. They have performed the nearly impossible in making any changes or adjustments that we have requested.

Even though we eventually decided to purchase a Liberty, we are very impressed with the Marathon staff.
