Great new Bus

[rfoster]

Ray: Good Job, looks great. I know you and the Ms are truly excited and pleased with that new beautiful coach. I am envious, All you guys and gals getting these new buses and for the most part they are in the "M" Club. Whats up with that? Country Coach is coming on strong too.

I know were you can get a matching Mini Convertible.

I know were you can get a matching Mini Convertible.

Tell me more! I'm interested in a convertable mini. Was gonna get a nice red one for my previous coach, but now I'm gonna have to change colors!


As for joining the M-club, it was more a matter of what was available in the type of coach I wanted. In CA it requires a class-B license to drive a 45 foot coach, which I don't yet have. Didn't really want 45 ft OR slides, as both add significantly to price, which again in CA turns into higher yearly fees.

So, inventory seems to drive a 40ft no-slide XL2 purchase.


Speaking also of the M-club, by purchasing a Marathon, I was invited to join the real "M-Club", i.e. the Marathon club. They gave me the last published quarterly magazine. It was interesting to learn that there were approximately 5 rallies scheduled in upcoming months, ranging in price from around $1800 to $3500!!!

It made me think about the Prevost rally in Quebec this coming summer. Given the normal Marathon rally prices, they were right inline there.

Makes our POG rallies seem to be a real BARGAIN!

ps: Each Marathon rally I looked at had only one tech session listed! Different focus, indeed.

Nice bus, we love our XLII 40 and I am sure you will too. Great choice.

Nice, very nice. Congradulations Ray. I am sure you and Kathy had a Blast coming home. I am looking forward to caravaning with you soon. Gary

Pretty sweet ride for sure. I think you needed that Hummer for sure. With some Mater teeth for added appeal.

Great looking Marathon Ray, can't wait to see it in person.

Now for the big dish with the blue glow!

Hope to see it and you in person soon.

It has come to my attention that certain member/s have included in their signature line something on the lines of "TBC Founding Member". For you Noobies(new owner of bus) that means "two bus club". Thats right 2 buses in their garage & on their insurance policy. Thats okay with me, put whatever you like in your signature line and hope the thread police don't give you a ticket.

Now believe it or not I had the opportunity to discuss with a certain individual that could be confusing as it could mean 3 buses.

Ewwewwweeee, imagine that!

I offer the following suggestion: Instead of TBC - change it to 2BC or 3BC. This avoids the potential for confusion.
Thats my 2 cents.
