    Gil & Co......we did about the same as you are doing, picked up our CC in Traverse City, MI and voila started home to Northern Arkansas...in FEB! A lot to learn, and having a couple friends to call for answers or guidance helped. This web site is a plus for you...don't be shy.

    I flew out to Texas from Tampa, Florida not sure if I was buying the Bus . By the time I left Texas it was late afternoon. As darkness set in I realized I did not even know how to turn the headlights on. I stopped at a rest stop and spent about thirty minutes figuring out the various controls including the GPS etc. I still remember nervously pulling in to my first truck stop for fuel without knowing for sure how far to pull in to position the fuel pump next to the fill up location since I could not see it clearly from the drivers seat. Just a few examples of all the little details to be learned as you use your new Bus. Congratulations, I know you will find the experience as much fun as I did.

    I thought someone might recognize that the 99 CC Gil bought is mine. As some of you know, I started getting ready to open a business in late 2010 after we got back from Yellowstone in Oct 2010. Everything was working on the bus as it should when we got home, but we have not been on a trip since that time. I just changed the oil, the oil filters and fuel filters and lubricated the bus, so I know that should be in good shape. I have continued to start the bus every month and exercise all the systems, so I am hoping Gil has no problems with anything. I replaced the 4 engine batteries in Feb of this year. Gil and his wife are nice people and should fit in nicely with the other poggers. I was going to recommend that he join POG when he comes to pick up the bus, but I see he has beat me to the draw.

    Gil, This is a great group of people, with a wealth of knowledge and a willingness to help. This forum will make life much easier if/when you need additional information about anything on the bus. There are many very knowledgeable CC owners, and a bunch more who know Prevosts. Best $100 you will spend on a Prevost. All the friends I kept mentioning when we were talking about the bus were all met through this forum, and they are scattered across sthe U.S.

    Dale, I thought I recognized the front of the bus, but was not aware of your selling it! Are you going to get another one? If not we will certainly miss you and Paulette. Gil, get in the bus and go. If it belonged to Dale you are in great shape. (Gil, look for some hidden $100.00 bills through out the coach, I'm sure he had a lot of them hidden)
    Dale & Paulette, keep us up to date.

    Pete,

    Funny you should say that. Yes there WERE hundreds floating around. All made there way back to their rightful owner. I'll keep looking though :-)

    Gil,

    Pete was just kidding about the $100 bills, but you and I know the real truth.

    Gil and Durlene are planning on going to Alaska in a few weeks, so some of you who have made the trip should be able to give them some good tips. I know Ken and Janet had a memorable trip a couple years ago and have lots of pictures to back it up.
