Keep the bus, you don’t have to have a place to “go”, just go camp, it’s awesome family time! I’m on my third coach in 17 years, I’m 53 with 5 kids and we love it. In a Foretravel Realm now and I’m just fine with letting her sit for a few months at a time in the winter, so worth it!
It is. Even if my family doesn’t want to go, makes for some good guys weekends!
@14:40 My buddies 1960 Piper Pacer!! Awesome Video!! Hope you keep the Couch!!
Awesome! My buddy had one too- can’t beat those planes! Thanks for watching!
@@CampPrevost Absolutely!!!
OH keep it. You need to find a purpose for it. I bought a Motorhome fixed it up used it a few times then thought about getting rid of it as I was the only one in the family who liked it.. Then I found a purpose. I golf and joined the Veterans golf Association so I take it to all those events. My pals come we grill out play golf and enjoy the hell out of it. Look the kids are going to leave you soon, My did, keep the bus and find a purpose to use it..
wish you well..
You are so right! For no trips this year I think we just planned out 6 or 7 the other day!
What a sad ending video ;) I feel bad for you....You clearly don't want to sell it and I understand you...Good luck !
It’s like a dog - sometimes you have to do what’s best for her, not yourself. That’s where I am. Thanks for watching and the email!
@@CampPrevost Who has/had a 1948 Cessna ? Your dad?
@@1983dmd I bought one about 20 years ago. Loved it!
Thank you for the video.
You're welcome
Thank you, job well done.
Thanks!
Great Video !!
Thanks!
Awesome video as always. Team Prevost & BBQ vote’s keep our twin 😉
Last time I was Oshkosh I rent a motorhome 1995. I think I think I want to go back now. Thank you for your video Kentucky.
It’s awesome! It’s so hot though, but worth it. I think 2-3 days is enough though
Don't get rid of it. Can't wait to get mine soon even if I'm solo.
I'll be keeping for awhile now. After I get the solar installed, would like to do some real boon docking
@Camp Prevost I plan on purchasing after April. Diesel 43-45 footer used. I'll be watching all your videos. They are very informative. 👍🏽
Great Video! Just watched it. Livin’ a dream of mine. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love it! I sent you an email with some questions! Looks like you had a blast!
Thanks!
Thanks for watching, send an email if interested.
Keep the bus; I think you'd regret not having it.
I think so too. I have some lithium batteries coming - will have to tinker with those for awhile now!
It was great watching your vids for the time you had the bus and learning about it. Thanks for sharing your vacations and family with us all. I didn’t watch the full video yet, but will you consider another camper/RV? Perhaps a smaller one? I remember you said you used to have a class C
Welcome - thanks for watching. If I do ever sell it I would like to get an X - something that needs work otherwise it wouldn’t be any fun! Lol. We sold our super C and lasted 3 months before we got this one. I’m installing lithium in it now - might as well get a paint job and keep it forever….
Why were your camping fees so high ? $1200? EAA advertises Scholler non electric sites for $50/night and $75/night for electric.
I'm not a pilot, but I intend to go to Oshkosh one of these years.
So they get you by holding and then releasing the electric sites on 6.24. If you book a site on 6.24, you pay $75 a night through 7.31. So it’s a gamble - wait 2 days and a few sites are taken. Wait another 2 day and a few more are taken - but you just saved $300. I watched the site a few times a day and all the sites were taken by 10:30pm the middle of July - so was around 16 days I had to pay for even though I only used 6. I believe you can stay the entire time you book though. As you can see in the video we were still a mile away. Motels were around $600 a night that week too. I love Oshkosh but 3 days is enough if it helps.
If you don't want to sell it. DON'T!!
I can be there when and if you need it.
Well it’s getting a new lithium set up now. Just put on 2 new tires!
huh!!!!! 33 states and no place to go???? you need to open up and expand your horizons. I've been all over the world and all states and I still find America that needs to be seen and explored. if you can't find something of interest or beautiful here, maybe you should go elsewhere.
Haha. Never said there isn’t more to see just places to bring a 45’ 50k lbs bus with a truck and 2 dogs! You are right - just stayed the weekend with my daughter at the state fair - never knew the place existed (the camp sites at the fair)
Nice video…like being there..1.85 miles from the Electric Sites?….your CampSpot was 1.0 mile to the Ultralight area…Long walk…Need a bike, FOR SURE.How far to the Boeing center area?….
To the Boeing area? I’m still on my way back! Lol
Any tips for bringing a large mh to eaa campground. I am going to airventure this year with my 40ft Monaco. I don't want to get it stuck if there is alot of rain making the camping area muddy. I'm getting there 2 days before it starts hoping to get a decent site.
It’s a mess at best - in regards to the camping. The electric spot I got in the video doesn’t open online reservations until about a month before the event. And you have to pay for everyday (at $75 a day, can’t remember) from the day you book the site through the end of July. Everyday you wait (you save $75) but risk loosing the site. I think the other spots are first come first serve - and most of them start filling up days to weeks before the event starts. And some of the spots are miles from the entry. Kinda sucks. I ended up paying $1,200 for my spot and was one of the last spots - I waited hoping to book late to get a lower cost. So I booked 16 days - and only used 5…. There are some private grounds around - but think the people in those spots have them reserved 10 years in advance. In regards to the sites - we were lucky and it was dry, very dry. If it rained, it would be a mess at best. It’s farmed land the other 50 weeks of the year. I enjoy Oshkosh - the camping reservations not so much. Good luck!!! If you know a secret let me know.
@@CampPrevost thanks for the info. I plan on boondocking anyway. Brand new agm battery bank and have solar panel. I camped in osh before but not during airventure. One campground had closed and the other was had very un level tight sites.
Keep it you got gonna have grandkids one day then you’re too old to drive it
That’s for sure. Life keeps going by faster and faster.
Only way to do AirVenture…The Prevost Way…nice …..What was the diesel discount deal?
It sure is! It used to be TSD and is now open roads. Just being able to see fuel prices is awesome, let alone being able to pay at the semi pumps. Then add on a $.10-$.80 per gallon discount is crazy! And I don’t think there was a cost, just have to link you bank account (which scares some but been fine for 3 years!)
Emailed you about the bus, no response. Is it for sale?
Sorry I haven’t replied. I was thinking about it and thought if I got the right offer I’d let it go. Then found the batteries were damaged - so now I’m in the fix stage and might add solar. Everything is for sale but thinking of holding for now…..
Editing the title is pretty easy
You said it cost $1400 or $1200 to stay how many days do you have to make reservations and what are their phone numbers thank you KY
So I stayed at the Oshkosh campgrounds - the full hook up ones. The way they do it kinda sucks. I can’t remember the daily cost (maybe $30-60 per night). They open it up for reservations like 45 days prior to the last week of July. When they open it up all the sites are available but you have to pay the nightly fee from the date of booking through the end of July. So if it’s $45 a night and you book 45 days out it will cost you $2,025. If you wait a day it will be $45 less but the some of the spots might be gone. I watched it everyday and they started going quick and got it when it cost like $1,200. That’s for the full service at camp scholer - I think you can get a non power site for less
Sell it and buy a hot air balloon ! Try something different !
Ha - wonder if they make a 4 passenger with a spot for 2 dogs! The way we pack we’d need a few balloons. Always wanted to do that - it’s on my bucket list!
What did it cost you to camp out? Did you make a reservation? Can you give me the phone number thanks. I’m getting ready to buy a diesel pusher 45 foot 25 years old or more Provo. Thanks, Kentucky.
Its crazy the way they do it. Like 65-80 a day but you have to pay for the days you book it through the end of the month. So if you book it the first day it’s 30 x $80. But wait a day and risk others getting a site. I think I jumped in at 16 days so was almost $1000.
you have too much money
Ha! There is always someone with more. That’s what keeps the drive to be better though. Life wouldn’t be as fun if everyone had everything. Most of the fun is the trip, not the final destination.
