While working at Sewell Motorcoach in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, a brnad new 2024 Prevost H3 bus shell drove into the dealership. Its destination was a paint and body shop close to the dealership and was just stopping for a few minutes. I was able to get permission to take a look inside and around it very quickly to share what is a very rare sight for me. The vehicle is really a modified transportation bus, that has been ordered by a "Bus Converter" with slide outs in it, but otherwise it is an empty "shell." The converter will add all the interior finishes, mechanical systems, and home furnishings to make it a $2.5 million bus conversion when it's done.
Seeing the bus naked, really shows how much more impressive the buses are when compared to a normal RV, as rather than being a foam box on a ladder frame rail, the bus shel has integrated stainless steel framing to construct the box and to be part of the frame itself.
Thanks for watching!
