Hey, just thought I would tell you that during an interview with NASCAR FedEx driver Denny Hamlin Saturday, he was standing just outside his MARATHON coach door and the MARATHON logo was in plain sight behind him during the entire interview! His coach was apple red in color and very sharp. Thought that was kinda cool!
+Frank S Day Thank you for keeping us posted! That is fun. Although we're sure that Marathon President and Owner Steve Schoellhorn caught it, it's nice for others to know as well. Thanks, again, Frank. You're always first place in our book!
On a motor coach that cost $1Mil + One would think nothing was skimpped but you can see in plain sight on some of the details on the video, examples like the cheap washer and drier units and the dish washer, a high end dish washers have a stainless inner tub rather than the cheap plastic....
Thank you for watching our videos, Tony. We appreciate your insight. Now while there are other choices out there for appliances, our engineers have to look at a number of factors including physical size, ability to withstand a mobile environment, coding requirements and weight. In the typical home the weight and mobile environment factors are not an issue; however, when designing motorcoaches, we have to consider all of these factors and more. But, allowances and substitutions can be made. When a client chooses to customize an order, upon reviewing priorities and wish list items, any number of possibilities exist. After all, our goal is to implement our client’s unique vision.
I own a 160 ft steel boat which costs me 2 million per year for the crew of 8 and maintenance costs per year, and that cost goes up depending on where I decide to go in the world and mostly for the diesel fuel, at 8knots my boat burns over 80 gallons per hour, I bought the boat new in 2006 and just had the engines and gen sets replaced, I am not a fan of the slide outs on motor coaches as it compromises the structural integrity of the coach. I've requested a quote from Prevost for a coach without the slides for one of their VIP Plus models and was quoted 2.2, I will be visiting their factory in September to take delivery, I wish you luck selling your product.
Marathon Coach is proud to have built the most Prevost RV conversions of any conversion company. It’s easy to see why we choose Prevost: Put simply, they build the best conversion RV platform hands down. As far as slides go, we’ve produced over 500 coaches with slide-outs with no structural failures. The Prevost slide-out chassis is designed to be structurally sound without the slide rooms being installed. In other words, the coach can be driven without the slide rooms installed. There are no pins or clamps that engage when the rooms are retracted to recreate the structural integrity. It sounds like you know how to live life right. Best wishes to you and happy adventuring!
If you really cared about weight, you wouldn't put a dozen of TV sets, shiny parts, useless "stylish" lights everywhere and other things of questionable taste. Honestly, I think the decoration is equivalent to what you would find in a mcmansion. I know that you can customise everything, but since most coaches I've seen in pictures look similar, it has to mean most of your customers have these tastes.
Tony Corleone you could build a heck of a school bus conversion with that kind of money, and you would still have the ground clearance to go off-road if you want. I just recently picked up a $1000 AmTran and plan on doing just that, minus about 2.1999 million give or take
I have a question. Why did y’all stop using the big windows in the back like on the Xll models? I think those look better on the X3 rather then the small window. That’s the only problem I see. It’s a beautiful coach! Hopefully one day I can afford one!
Hey Christopher, thanks for the great question! When we began building X3 coaches, we made several floor plan changes which worked out better with only one bedroom window on the rear curbside. Thanks for watching and happy adventuring!
Thank you for watching our videos. We need to begin by asking: "What would you like to do with the HDMI input card?” If it's for gaming, laptop or camera/video HD input, we install them per customer request, wherever the customer wants/needs them. Of course, there are HDMI input cards within the main Crestron HD switching console with the majority of the AV gear. For this style of coach it is in the rear of the coach interior on the driver’s side where there is an audio/video rack of devices. Should you have any additional questions, tech or otherwise, please don't hesitate to contact one of our sales professionals.
One of the joys of custom creating your own coach is that we can create and provide just about any feature you can imagine, including a Euro-booth that converts into a sleeping area. Although we don't typically build this feature in our spec coaches, we do often include the bunks-to-wardrobe feature as we've found that our client base appreciates this innovative solution. This state-of-the-art technology provides the reliable performance and duality you want to have the space you desire for guests or storage. It’s up to you. The extra beds are there when you need them and maximizing storage space when you don’t. You can watch the video here: ruclips.net/video/g2lI3916jsQ/видео.html. Thank you for watching our videos and for the great question!
+Mr Rey We're thrilled to hear you like the coach. And, we'll be sure to share your comment about the music with the creative department. Thank you for watching and happy adventuring!
Marathon Coach Inc VERY BEAUTIFUL COACHES. LOOKING TO OWNING ONE OF THESE COACHES TO LIVE FULLTIME. GREAT FLOORPLANS. TKS CURTIS P JORDAN WINNER OF PCH SWEEPSTAKES GAMES CONCERING PERCHASE OF MOTORHOME. THANKS FRIEND
Just imagine the electrical issues, like doors not opening, and what happened to design? Shouldn't they be using materials that belong in a bus, perhaps more durable rather than the same lame stuff you would find in a show home?
Thank you for watching our videos. Quality matters, especially where wiring is concerned. We have a proud tradition of highly engineered (neat and tidy) aircraft style wiring, and we aren't afraid to show-off. We welcome you to stop by and see our production process from start-to-finish and the engineering behind our walls, should you ever find yourself near our production facility. You'll find that each coach's wiring system is designed by an electrical engineer, every wire is labeled at all ends, labeled Wago aircraft-style wiring connections, complete accessibility to all wiring junctions, clean, well thought out wiring boards that border artwork and high potential esting to reveal any weakness in the system. We welcome you at any time, no reservation required. Thanks, again, and best wishes to you, today and every day.
Marathon Coach Inc Yes, there's no doubt that a lot of skilled work went into your motor coach, however, it is too complex, it will cost a fortune to fix. Even for us rich folks! The interior is already dated~ it's not a classic beautiful design, cheap materials, dated in ten years, waste of resources. I've spent a lot of time in buses like this, and they are great to use up and then throw away~ disposable~
When you order a custom designed coach, you have the opportunity to choose everything from the floorplan to the fabrics. Our professional interior design and exterior paint departments have the experience, knowledge and resources to implement your unique vision. And with thousands of different colors, materials and styles to choose from, the creative possibilities are endless. We have unparalleled skill and expertise in building the most advanced coaches on the road today. And, with a chassis built to last well over a million miles, should you desire, as trends change, you can choose to remodel your coach (or purchase a new one). We have a reputation of excellence with successful business people, music legends, NASCAR drivers, sports professionals and movie stars alike. Should you find yourself close to one of our facilities, we welcome you to come in so we can show you why these discerning people choose Marathon Coach.
Thank you for watching our videos. We strive to highlight each of our coaches. What we’ve found is that some people are drawn to the quieter designs like this one while others find the bolder coaches, such as Marathon Coach #1248, more appealing. One of the great things about being a Marathon customer is that you can always customize your coach; from floorplan to thread color, we’re happy to implement your unique vision. As for the music, we'll be sure to share your comment with the creative department. Thank you for joining the conversation. Best wishes to you and happy adventuring!
You guys just keep raising the bar to new heights. This coach is absolutely spectacular !!! Well done Marathon
+Rich Sanderson Thank you, Rich. We'll be sure to share your comment with the design team!
This is my favorite color combination, what a beautiful coach.
That's what we love to hear! Thank you for making our day.
Another outstanding video! So can't wait to meet you all someday and tour your marvelous facility! It's at the top of my bucket list!
+Frank S Day Just let us know when you're in the area. We look forward to giving you the VIP tour!

Lovely. I wonder could a bunk room be located at the rear of a bus? Nothing too big but the same size as a bathroom?
By reading the comments you can see wealth doesn't always equal class or brains.
Excellent Video!
+Marathon Coach of Texas - Greg Burton Thanks, Greg. We think you're pretty excellent as well! Best wishes for a great day!
Very nice Bus
On a motor coach that cost $1Mil +
