Kurt,
Why would you want to replace a 42' newer coach with S-60 for a
smaller older 8v92?

Being rather partial to green coaches, I tend to watch for them. That
one looks really good in the pictures, but it has been on consignment
on Staley's lot for a *long* time. I distinctly remember the
(HEADLINER IN FRONT LOUNGE HAS DAMAGE AND NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED)
comment. Odd there are no pictures of the damage. As I recall,
someone went to see it and had posted a rather negative review. I
searched for that post but can't find it right now.
If someone remembers that post or went to see the coach, please update
us again.

LOL ... I took a look and my first thought was "eeugh ... teal (green) and magenta colors." Guess it depends on the eye of the beholder.
My first impression from the photos was that it looked pretty good and the price seems not unreasonable for a starting point. However, if there's unreported damage and/or other problems, then it might not be a good deal.

Well you can tell I've been off the web for a while. My computers
were infected by a Trojan virus late in Jan. It took a while and a
new laptop to fix the problems. I lost a lot of files and had to get
new credit cards. S.O.B.'s, "and I don't mean, Some Other Bus" So if
I repeat any request or post, or stuff you guys have already beaten
to death, forgive me.
Mike your right; I do recall seeing that coach listed for a while
now. If it's truly a good deal it won't stick around for long. I'll
go by Staley's if I have time just to look at her.
Paul, The Indulgence is safe at home and ready for this weekend's
trip. I'm taking my daughter and 9 of her friends to Nashville for
their Senior Prom. Should be Hoot!
Bye the way my coach is not for sale, I like all Birds, but the PT-
42's are my favorite flavor, maybe a 43 would due but I would not go
to a 40 footer of any mfg. Yes you're right I'm spoiled! All I need
now is a Stacker Trailer that doesn't cost as much as my coach, so I
can load it up full of toys and its party time!
I had a full servicing done at Prevost Nashville a few months ago and
it was well worth the money. All new filters & fluids, the new tranny
filters and the high grade transmission fluid really made a
difference, about a mile per gallon and super smooth shifting. The
Jake is even smoother and not as radical, the jerking upon activation
has gone away. I'm a very happy camper. The brakes were checked for
wear and a full chassis lube, headlights adjusted and new wiper
blades. She is ready to roll.

HELLO! 1MPG from tranny fluid change!? Hey Kurt, feel free to
expound on the tranny fluid change. Synthetic I assume? I have been
putting that change off for a while since the dino tranny fluid was
fresh, but for 1MPG.....
Thanks,

It looks nice but the one I have listed for sale has less miles and gen time and is just as nice and it can be bought for less.

I just checked out this coach. My generator hours are just 500 more hours then that coach. And my coach is 25 years old. They must have run that generator constantly.

Mike,
I call Prevost and they told me it is Transynd by Castrol.
http://www.allisontransmission.com/service/transynd.jsp
I also had a level 3 service which replaces all filters. In the
Allison 6 speed I think there are 3 internal filters and of course
all oil, fuel and air filters. They greased everything that could be
grease and it also helped in the braking. I used to get a noise from
the front brake that was called normal but it has now quit.
I was told when I bought my coach that all the fluid & filters had
been changed but I really don't know for sure. But it did not perform
like it does now.
What I do know is that I'm up to 5.5 to 6 MPG from 4.5 to 4.8
according to the SilverLeaf VMSpc.
Call it what you like, it's working for me.
Here's something to chew on. I don't know anything about H2O helping
your fuel mileage but I know Propane injection works. On a trip last
summer I was at a Flying J in S.W. KY. At the RV island.
A trucker in a red and white Peterbuilt pulled in behind me. I
thought that to strange in itself, so I went back to his truck to
tell him I was going to be there a while for fuel and propane.
He told me he was after propane. I asked why and he said he had a
truck with propane injection and the outfit he drove for was testing
the system on 20 or so trucks. I asked if it was working and he
professed almost 2.5 MPG up on average.
I don't know about that, but I do know the guy whom works on my Ford
Powerstroke has a propane fire diesel pick up that with rip and
snort, and he's getting better MPG than my truck gets

And for sure it is a purty thing.
