We built The Owner's Manual because that gap between what people see and what they're actually looking at is too wide. It's a quarterly magazine, not a brochure, not a sales deck, written for buyers, owners, dealers, and converters who want the real information.
What's inside Issue One
Six pieces. Each one built around a question we kept hearing and couldn't find a straight answer to anywhere else.
- Cover story: Inside Liberty Coach
Frank Konigseder and his family have been converting Prevost coaches for 47 years. We spent time with them in New Jersey to understand what three generations in this business actually looks like, and what they think separates a good conversion from one that's still holding value 15 years later. If you've ever wondered what Marathon vs. Liberty really comes down to at the builder level, this is where that story starts.
- What a craftsman sees in a Prevost
A builder's perspective on why the H3-45 shell attracts serious conversion work: the structural decisions Prevost makes at the factory that converters are either working with or working around.
- The real cost of ownership
Not the sticker price. The annual carrying costs, maintenance intervals, insurance ranges, and storage realities that don't show up in any listing. If you're considering buying, read this before you make an offer.
- The Emerald price guide
Real market pricing on used H3-45s and X3-45s, broken down by model year, slide count, and mileage range. No dealer markup stories. The same data we published in the Emerald price guide on the site, updated for current market conditions.
- An honest take on Starlink
We installed it and tested it. Does it work at RV parks? What happens at elevation? Is Roam Unlimited worth the monthly fee versus a campground Wi-Fi booster? Actual results, not press release language.
- Marketplace listings and resort guides
Current coaches for sale, plus where to take them: Prevost-friendly resorts and stops worth knowing about.
Who this is for
If you own a Prevost, you'll use it as a reference. If you're buying one, it'll save you money. If you convert, build, or sell them, there's something in here about how the market is moving that's worth 20 minutes of your time.
It's not written for people who are new to motorcoaches in general. It assumes you know what an H3-45 is and that you care about the difference between a shell conversion and a full custom interior. If that's you, the Liberty Coach story alone is worth the download.
This isn't a sales brochure. It's a genuinely useful magazine for people who actually care about Prevost coaches.
