We (the wife a I) drove one at the RIV and it was a marked improvement
in ride and handling over our 01 LX. In talking with a couple of new
owners they also expressed a great deal of satisfaction in the new
bird, I read the article and agree with the comment it is positioned
well with the price below the higher line buses. It is still not a
Prevost but getting close.

Synopsis: the bird rides and handles better but all the switches work
in the Prevost!
Hey there Jim, Ken, I think as with most things mechanical there
exist "bugs that need to be "worked out" I just had a conversation
yesterday with a friend that has been riding back and forth from Fla
to Ind with his buddy in his 7 mo old $1.3 Prevost..the last 4 trips
they have dropped the coach at a TN dealer for electical issues and
that is after another dealer tried 3 times to get it right. Generally
small but annoying issues. He says the Prevost rides/drives like a
sports car nothing like his BB. He has not driven the "NEW" 450Lxi
which are supposed to be a substantially different coach when it
comes to driveablity! BUT BB needs to be careful..if that is the case
why would someone buy a pre 06 450??? Once again "Great minds at work"
