Featherlite Prevost H3-45 2007
January 1, 2007
Yes, you could choose to buy a house for the price of a Featherlite-converted Prevost H3-45 coach, but that’s exactly what you would get from this custom-built home on wheels. The base price for the Featherlite conversion is in the $1.5 million to $1.8 million range, and the company just rolled out the Vantare Platinum Plus, asking $2.5 million. The shell (with three slide-out rooms) is built by Prevost, part of the Volvo Bus Corp. Featherlite then completes the conversion to specification, working with interior designer Karen Horton, a luxury-coach owner whose design credits include the Beaufort Inn, to add touches such as Inca marble, copper-imbedded glass-tile risers, pearlized Italian leather, Sapele Pommele veneer, a custom Italian sofa with Correggio fabric, suede-lined drawers, Swarovski crystal ceiling lights, custom copper countertops, or Sub-Zero appliances.
