There are many people that buy older Prevost Buses. You'll find quite a few at Prvostcommunity.com.
We have owned a couple of well known non-Prevost motorhome's and now we own a Prevost. With the other motorhomes, once we left the factory it was very difficult to get help when something happened. To us it felt like the manufacturer didn't care.
When we have an issue with the Prevost, we call their 800 number. It doesn't matter how old you bus is they truly want to help you. 24/7 their techs have all the prints for your bus. In fact as a Prevost owner I have an app on my phone that can call up parts lists, wiring diagrams etc. at any time.
There's a bit of truth to the fact that maintenance on an older bus costs about what a new bus costs. But the older buses don't have a lot of the electronics on the newer ones. They're simpler. Many of the owners of older buses are gear heads or very handy. It helps a lot with maintenance costs.
The Prevost chassis is what Greyhound buses and most tour buses are on. They are just getting broken in at a million miles. Prevost designs them to last for millions of miles.
