Shopping for a Prevost

[Joe Camper]

A friend recently sold a Legendary XLIIDS with them and I know he is happy it did not take them long.

Regardless of where you end up I would plan on camping out in it if not on location then in a campground somewhere close and use it for as long as you can but FOR AT LEAST 2 or 3 days and longer if possible. You will be happy you did.

Heck it will take you every bit of 1 day just to familurize yourself with figuring out how to navigate the menu on the inverter remotes and get them to some correct initial peramiters to start and then run the battery bank thru a couple of cycles to see if you have them set right.

Many Vantare have the house a/c 1/2 and 1/2 , 2 cruise air 1 basment air this Vantare has all cruise air? different.

Vantare also wires everything in the coach thru the inverters air conditioners electric heaters everything sept the basement a/c. Then leave it up to the opporators to manage loads.

The trace 4024 inverters carry 35 amp main breakers so your living on 70 amp when you on inverters and you DO NEED to manage stuff from time to time with the intermittin loads but with everything wired thru them you have lots of flexability. IMO this is prefferable design.


Easy to switch inverter bypass switches are also a must. This is IMO very very important

EVERY buyer looking at ANY conversion that does not have inverter emergency bypasses should make the seller explain how to get power to the fridge in an event of an inverter failure. In many buses that proposition is more difficult than you would think.
