    Default 03 Royale

    I looked at the 03 and really like it to bad my bus barn is setup for a 40'. I agree +400K is a little much but I have made worst buy's.

    We have been very happy with our Royale. Hope it finds a good home.

    Knock on wood or stainless, but I have had very little problems with my slides. If you don't count replacing 3 air seals in 3 years. Prevost paid all three times and I am the 3rd owner. No Stainless coming loose yet.
    I don't think you'll ever get anything in writing from Prevost or a convertor on a used Coach and I wouldn't have let that be deal breaker.
    I enjoy the slides, but I have kids and dogs with me on many trips. I'm used to slides, having had two other coaches with slides.
    My slides are Prevost slides.

    I drove GaryD's bus to Branson with him, we did a Bonzi run and everything worked great. With my 4 girls(wife and 3 kids) we need to move about when traveling and the slides just didn't sound like a good idea. I agree with Jon on the deal, just depends on how you are going to use the thing and what your budget is, it's all GOOD!

    Default Rather have it 50% , than Not have it 100%

    Well I will throw my 2 cents worth in here. I am still a newbie, as we have only had our bus ( First RV ) since 02/08. Still learning lots. Boy am I learning lots.

    I have a single Prevost slide in our 45' 01 American, and I can tell you I have had numerous issues with our slide. Took two months last year just before Xmas to get it all redone to factory specs, but was all covered under Prevo warranty. Then there were several other times that the slide didn't work for some reason or another........ Like this April in Ft. Wilderness, for a week with the granddaughter. Damn depressing to go all the way down there for a weeks vacation in Disneyworld and not be able to put the slide out...

    When we camp, we like to dance in the living room, Can't do that in a Non Slide Bus

    But for Peg and I, and we both agree.........

    We would rather have a slide available 50% of the time, than NOT have it 100% of the time.

    Gary,

    Dancing explains the bus rocking and is contrary to what Jdub said!

    Default Slide vs Non Slide

    I have had a non slide coach and loved it.

    I now have a two slide coach and love it. So far So good. 25000 miles since purchased in 8/08. No loose metal or broken windows . Power awning & digital dash still works . Happy wife too.

    It reminds me when I lived in a single wide and then moved on up to a double wide-I will never go back.. The additional room is great and unlike Gary I don't/can't dance..
    Roger that!
