Seen on the way to the Socal Mini Rally

[Petervs]

We spent a night at Marathon in Coburg, Oregon on our way south to the Mini Rally near San Diego. Since most Poggers live far east and south of Marathon, I thought I would post a few pictures of what I saw on their lot while we were there. We got there after business hours so I spoke to no one.

I will post just one pic with each listing because I am on a very slow and unreliable server.
This first one is an H3-45 shell as it arrives at Marathon. 4 slides! Could not tell if Prevost or some other company installed the slides. When looking in from the windshield, it was apparent that the bedroom is very cramped with the slides closed. We spend a lot of nights in places where opening slides would not be sensible, so maybe slides are not for us. N

Notice too all the stainless steel. I think the H boys should be required to remove some fenders while at POG rallies to show off their polishing prowess.

Here is a coach in for some service work. The designer apparently used some left over windows from the Titanic.

Everyone is allowed to do what they like. We do not all need to think it is a good idea.

Here is a fairly late model with some really cool fenders. They reminded me of something out of Star Wars. Perhaps one could install JATO bottles in there to provide some extra power to get up the steep hills pulling a stacker trailer?

Here is a coach that is equipped with the VORAD radar cruise control, which adjusts your speed to the traffic ahead. I have a similar system on my Mercedes and it is truly incredible, but I think this installation makes the bumper not qualified to bump much, unless you want to replace the $5000 radar frequently.

Very cool stuff Peter. I think that last issue of Marathon magazine introduced the 4 slide H-45 coach. I don't have it here so I can't verify that.

Peter,

I think the XL with the port holes belongs to Bruce and Pam.
