Compare Powerhouse for Power Safety Value Options & Reliability! POWERHOUSEOWNER AND COMPANY HISTORY My family and I have always been blessed withbeing close and enjoying the outdoors. If it is done outdoors and involvessomething with a motor on it, we do it. We have been enjoying RVs for many years. In the mid 90's we began looking at moving from a camp trailer to a motorhome. After being in the towing and auto body business for 20 yearsI knew the problems with the typical motor coaches being so unstableand under powered and I have seen first hand what was left of one afteran accident, which wasn't much and have towed it lots of low mile coacheswith blown motors and burned up transmissions I looked at some coaches built from a buschassis which offered a little more sturdy coach and a better chassis. This, however, had many problems: (1) Even a ten year old buses, with no slide outs, many of which had old obsolete two stroke diesel engines were over 175k (2) A bus with a single drive axle andlow ground clearance would make our off road campingdifficult (3) a bus with a rear mounted engine wouldmake the addition of a large capacity towing receiver difficult and expensive (4) I would still own something that would be a nightmare to work on, service, or get parts for. Its hard to find the engine and transmission ina bus or pusher coach let alone actually work on it. After being raised in a family trucking businessand spending most of my childhood servicing and maintaining semi trucks,I decided to build a custom luxury motor coach using a real class 8 semitruck. After building a Powerhouse Coach in 1998 theresults and response from anyone who saw it were overwhelming. The Powerhouse Coach was not only safe and affordablebut was also capable of towing and stopping anything I wanted to put behindit. I was actually using less fuel in this coach than I had beenusing a Dodge pickup to pull my camp trailer and motorcycles let alone the unbelievable power stability and safety I gained. Over the next year after selling two luxury motorcoaches built for my personal use, I started selling custom luxury motorcoaches as a prime business. The auto body repair and towing service weresoon phased out to keep up with demand for custom luxury motor coaches. My crew and I take GREAT PRIDE and satisfactionin providing our customers with a very high quality one of a kind luxurymotor coach. Contact the coach owners who are now eagerly working as Powerhouse Coach factory representatives and talk to themabout the performance of their custom luxury motor coaches. Please take the time to explore the Powerhouseweb site. Compare the run of the mill coaches you already knowabout to the next generation in luxury motor coaches.
