Wow did this Prevost need some love. The turbo boost was non existent and the suspension was in need of repairs. Bad wheel bearings, kingpins, and more…

Forgive me if I am drawing attention to something you would rather not highlight. But, I think we have just seen you deliver your usual superb service to a man of color... someone who does not always get the respect and attention a customer deserves. No surprise... Your expertise, your service, your respect for the customer were all first rate as always. Thank you for showing how EVERY customer deserves to be treated. That '35 foot Prevost is one of the nicest units we have seen you service to date. Keep up the great work you do and the high standards you set!!!

Always nice to see and hear a satisfied customer! Thanks and way to go. We love to see the clear damage and the straight forward repair. Not that we like damage, just sometimes we can't always see or understand the damage, how severe it is and how it got that way if it isn't simply age and wear. How much wear, movement can there be in a turbo wheel or shaft? Do you ever use a ? hmm? Like a feeler gauge other than your fingers to qualify a turbo being junk? Can you rebuild the shaft and bearings or is it better, not easier to install a new turbo? 🤔. And how many times will a turbo larger than the one coming off go on? 😁 Again, Thanks for sharing 👍 See you soon. 👌🏻✌🏻🙋‍♂️🌤🇨🇦👨‍🦽😎.

That looks like the Prevost coach that Johnny Depp's grandparents owned when I lived near them in Hallandale, Florida.same paint work. I love those big motorcoaches. Especially the mid-sixties- early-seventies GMC Scenicruiser.
@RustySax1949
@RustySax1949 Рік тому
1001 Scencruisers were built by GMC exclusively for Greyhound from 1954-1956. They remained in the fleet until 1975, after which they were sold off. There are approximately 250 left, with both 001 and 1001 surviving. 001 is still owned by Greyhound as part of it's historic fleet based in Los Angeles, while 1001 is in a private collection in IN.

I don't know what year that coach is but it looks very nice especially outside. Surprised how quiet the drivetrain and suspension is. I just spent 3-wks for vacation 20-miles to your southeast and it looks like I too will be leaving Indiana this fall (fingers crossed) and moving down there. I'll be back down there around Sept/Oct for another 2 or 3 weeks to look for a place to live. Now what to do with my trucking equipment. Thinking about a company driver position over in Spring Hill. Since y'all left, there are almost a dozen new logistics warehouses on Ronald Reagan Pkwy between I-74 and I-70 and more on the way minus the one that burned down at All Points and won't be rebuilt. Y'all made the right choice and appear to be doing very well and I hope to follow in your footsteps real soon.

These are really nice busses but I can’t imagine what the cost of operation and maintenance is. I’ve been watching your channel for a while and it appears the previous owners of most that come through you facility deferred their maintenance a lot. You sure know your busses. My compliments.👍🏻 A question,which busses tend to be more maintenance hogs,Prevost,or Wanderlodge?
