    Wayne, another way to look at a Prevost purchase, is to find the coach you really like, it may not be a Liberty or Marathon and consequently be priced considerably less, less enough in fact that you can use the savings to build a storage building to put it in. Most converters use the same components ie Aqua Hot, appliances, inverters, batteries ect. Or, consider how much fuel you can buy for 30-40K and enjoy traveling in your Prevost. My point is that when you really look at all of the converters they are all Prevost shells, the difference is the various methods used to "connect all of the components" for the finished product, and the paint job. Then considerations of the best type HVAC systems best fit your needs and where you intend to do most of your travels.....a whole other can of worms! I think you will find a number of so called "orphan" converters during your search, but I have yet to hear of any one of them that an owner has not been able to get repaired. I have been to various Prevost repair centers, and have yet find one that cares who the converter is. They along with other repair facilities, including our site sponsors are experts at repairing our coaches regardless of the converter. I also might add that the members of this forum are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. So pick the coach you really like and don't be afraid of who converted it! Other comments and input will follow this post. (Guaranteed)

    And it might be the best for Wayne, although until he does some homework he will not realize that.

    I will make Wayne aware of the need for two side sewer outlets however. (To all POG members, Roger and Micki may want to share some tales in Kerrville)

    Welcome Wayneo. Did you work for a company named I.E.S. in the summer of 2000?

    Wayne,
    PM me and I'll give you my two cent sales pitch for a Royale conversion or send me a note at coopersc@bellsouth.net. I think I can offer some insight.
    And you really should come to Kerrville.

    Welcome Wayneo! We just took our 97 Royale 40ft to Ken Robertson @ Luxury Coach Brokers in Clearwater,FL. This week. We bought a 45 ft Royale XLII 2001. Our 97 is beautiful and newly remodeled with neutral colors. I'm sure we could get some photos to you if interested in it. We love the Royale coaches due to the simplicity of operation. We just drove it down from Indiana with no known problems at all. Call us if we can help you.I don't think Ken has it on his web site yet due to the fact he has been gone to Oregon at the FMCA Rally.
