- Continuing my series of interviews with motorhome industry executives, I had the opportunity to sit down with Jimmy Adams, President of Featherlite Coaches at the 2019 Prevost Motorhome Expo in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Like my other on-camera industry interviews, no topics were out of bounds and no notes or scripts were used. This is simply an on the record conversation related to the company, design philosophy and what his company does do to separate their products from others.
During the Prevost Expo event I had the opportunity to produce a variety of videos that can be found on this site, my website at www.GadgetGuru... and on my Facebook page at / thegadgetguru
This is a two-part interview and here's the subjects covered in each episode.
Part One (This video)
- Featherlite's History
- Amadas Industries
- What Makes Featherlite Unique Among Other Prevost Converters
- How Many Prevost Motorhomes Featherlite Produces Annually
- Floor Plans Offered
- Does Featherlite Create True Custom Motor Coaches?
Part Two
- Budget Needed To Build A New Coach
- Which Slides? Featherlite or Prevost
- Weight Of Completed Coaches Leaving The Featherlite Factory
- Lithium Battery Options
- Vantare: Is Every Featherlite Motorhome A Vantare?

I’ve known Jimmy since the late ‘90’s when he was racing. I was a sales rep for MCI. They first used MCI chassis’s with other conversions. This is a Top Tier company and individuals.
Andy, great interview... you actually let the person talk and explain his growing process in the RV industry.
Thank You. More times than not, I need to jump in to keep the interview from becoming a commercial. I didn't feel the need to intervene in this interview. Others, yes, or they would have become nothing more than an advertisement for their company.
@@TheGadgetGuru Agree, keep up the good work and keep those videos coming.
uh no he didnt. annoying lil feller he is
Agree @hector! Letting the interviewee answer questions and share their unique insights is much more enjoyable to watch. You had a much better balance in this episode. 👍
One of your best interviews yet Andy great questions.
Thanks Joe!
GREAT Interview Andy and great questions.
Thanks Mr. G!
I agree with you Jimmy. You guys have a 2008 Amadas coach on your website right now, and the interior of that coach doesn't look like any of the competitors. Additionally, your newer coaches all seem to have those very clean lines. Most Newell's have custom interiors built to customer specific specifications because "That's what they do". Feahterlite is Featherlite, Liberty is Liberty, Marathon is Marathon etc etc....
Nice interview Andy! Great questions, and interesting answers, I learned a lot. Thank you!
Thanks Rick!
I know that Newmar isn’t a bus converter but the family that owns them, which includes the president, uses their motorhomes many times a year.
great job!
Thanks!
They are about 30 miles from where I live. I would love to take a tour of there facilities but I don't think that they do tours.
Sit down with millennium they have the best technology going. your right Newell has the best interiors period !!!!!
I did! th-cam.com/video/1c5mm2_dHes/w-d-xo.html
That’s not camping lol that’s driving your home and parking...
Uh...Yeah! But it's the nicest driving home on the planet!
The Gadget Guru I’ve got a Thor diesel pusher. I wish I could afford a prevost and I now know which one I would buy lol I sure can dream. Good job on the videos really good information 👍🏼
@@joshreed7908 Thanks Josh!
Even the CEO's of Great Companies need the crutch---> "You Know" to get them through explanation's... It's Sad...
