The cover story · p. 6
Inside Liberty Coach
The Konigseders have been converting Prevost shells in North Chicago since 1979, and there are three generations of them in the business now. Frank walks through the engineering behind a Liberty build, from foam-core cabinetry to airbag-mounted generators, and why those choices still show fifteen years later.

Built to Write In
One of two Prevost coaches built around a desk
A 2015 Millennium X3, one of only two ever built as a working road office. The man who ordered it wrote for a living, so he put a desk where the sofa usually goes and laid out the rest of the coach around it. If that isn't how you'd use the space, Panterra will redesign it before delivery.
Market · p. 22
The Emerald price guide
Used H3-45 and X3-45 prices broken out by model year, slide count, and mileage. It's the data behind the Emerald guide on our site, updated for this quarter.
Ownership · p. 27
The real cost of ownership
Plan on $18,000 to $73,000 a year to run a Prevost, depending on how far you travel and where you park. Insurance, storage, fuel, campgrounds and chassis PM are the predictable lines. The conversion-side repairs are the ones nobody budgets for.
Directory · p. 32
The Marketplace & Resort Guide
Coaches for sale right now with their real asking prices, plus Prevost-friendly resorts worth planning a trip around.
Tech · p. 34
An honest take on Starlink
What Starlink Roam costs and what it actually delivers in a coach: real-world speeds, the 50 to 75 watts it pulls when you're off grid, where the dish can go, and how it compares with cellular and campground Wi-Fi.
“Most of what you can read about Prevost coaches is a brochure or a forum thread. The brochure wants to sell you a coach. The forum thread is one owner's experience, which is useful right up until your coach is different from theirs.”
We kept getting the same questions on the site, about prices and running costs and which builder does what, and the answers were scattered across a dozen places. So we put them in one magazine you can sit down with. We'll do it again every quarter.
Written for people already in the Prevost world
Owners
You'll probably come back to the cost and Starlink pieces more than once.
Buyers
Read the price guide and the ownership costs before you negotiate, not after.
Converters and dealers
It's a quarterly read on where prices are going, and it takes about twenty minutes.
We wrote it assuming you know the difference between a shell conversion and a full custom interior. Most of these pieces started as articles on our blog, and the magazine puts them in one place you can keep.
