RE: Washington/ Oregon Cascade Mountains
Beautiful places most tourist miss.
Baker Lake, camp spots are free after Labor Day until Memorial Day.
Fort Casey It's a state park right on the water (no hook ups)
Deception pass state park.
Newhalem, Seattle city light tour, alpine lake boat ride and dinner crew style.
Skaget Valley tulip festival, happens April usually.
I'm sure the locals will add to the list.

RE: Washington/ Oregon Cascade Mountains
Late May, about the only roads that probably will still be closed are highway 410, the north Cascade highway 20. and the park roads leading to Paradise.
The roads into Crater Lake should be open.
all the major pass highways should be open. Even highway 20 may be open. (most years it opens about 1 June.)

RE: Newbie question/advice
I'd simply do a good service on the coach, de-winterize etc.
Then drive it out to a service center for servicing. tire check etc.

RE: Early Spring Trip to Olympic NP
101 on both sides of the park are at or near sea level.
It seldom snows down low.
You shouldn't have any problems there but going up to hurricane ridge might be a problem, never can tell early spring storms that snow are rare but they do happen.

RE: Best way to get paid for selling RV?
Our coach was delivered to our bank, we simply transferred to Money to the sellers using their bank account numbers, the seller had the money almost immediately.
They unhooked their towed, we hooked ours up, we drove the coach home.

RE: Where to go in mid April 2019
We are from southern CA. We are looking for advises on places to go in mid April (kid's spring break). Any suggestions? We prefer places that are within 10 hours or less away from Los Angeles.
thanks
Skaget valley tulip festival will be in full bloom.
Maybe I'm confused, but the OP is looking for somewhere that is within a 10 hour drive from LA, correct?
So why would you suggest Skaget valley in WA state? That's about a 24 hour drive.
It's actually about 18 from LA.
And it's worth the drive.

RE: Where to go in mid April 2019
People notice he specified 10 hour max from SoCal not a couple days
I understood a 10 hour drive, not how long the vacation will be.

One must know the high milage on the engine is no worries, but the rest of the chassis is.

RE: Prevost Bus or Newmar King Air
If you hit another bear, you want to be in Oregon. Starting January 1st, it's legal to harvest road kill in Oregon. That would keep you in meat for a while, but you might need a bigger grill. Just curious, what was the fate of the bear ?
Bear didn't die. got up and ran off. we drove 1/4 mile then got out to view the damage.
happened so fast.. see bear, bang.

RE: Prevost Bus or Newmar King Air
I'm curious how much would a front bumper cost for say a 2000
Prevost?

RE: Prevost Bus or Newmar King Air
That bear story is just crazy. A Prevost owner would simply reach down for the bottle kept in the leg pouch, open the side window and pepper spray that bear. Even a bear would know that and would look for the next fiberglass coach silly!
You'd be surprised how fast a bear is.

RE: Prevost Bus or Newmar King Air
Wow you hit a bear and only $1,300.00 in damage.
Around here if the bear just scratched you bumper with its claw you couldn't even get it painted for $1300.00 never mind parts also
Yes, it happened so fast the bear ran out from the left side of the road. and almost made it, he just hit the lower right corner of the front cap, it simply unbolts.
I did the repair, and yes paint is expensive.

RE: Prevost Bus or Newmar King Air
Is it possible that the STEEL bumper on the Prevost might have just killed the bear and resulted in nothing more than washing the blood off of the front end? Just saying........
This is true, but I've seen bears bend a truck bumper that's much stronger than a bus bumper.

RE: Prevost Bus or Newmar King Air
I mean no disrespect but you cannot compare a Newmar Of any style or type to a Prevost! One is a bus while the other is a fiberglass motorhome. Mr. Mark said how a Prevost has front and rear bumpers and folks that is huge. Have you seen videos of a fiberglass coach in an accident with fiberglass flying everywhere? No fiberglass on a Prevost! Again, no disrespect it just is what it is.
When/If you ever do crash the Prevost look at the cost of repair, where you must get it done vs, the fiberglass coaches.
We hit a bear on the Casier highway in 2017, I took pictures sent them to Newmar they gave me part numbers, I ordered the part, and it was waiting for me when we got home, Painted the new part, removed the broken one and installed the new piece.
Insurance paid the whole bill. $1300.00.
Prevost may be the best built coach. but fiberglass offers some advantages too.

RE: Prevost Bus or Newmar King Air
200-350k puts you in a 2000-2004 Prevost
Or
King Aire
He still gets into a much later coach. The 2002-3 coaches won't have the modern electronics that a 2012-3 will have
