Being more interested in coaches than politics, I first thought that Palin's "ride" was just another H3-45. However, the headlights didn't look like any Prevost I could remember.
So, my wife did some research on the internet and low and behold, it's not a Prevost at all, but a Country Coach! Further research pinned it down as a Lexa, circa 2004 or so. In a video promoting her tour, there are several milli-second shots of the coach being painted (or some type of film??).
Just curious if anyone might know some history on the coach........where it was purchased and who did the graphics.

You are correct, it is a Lexa. Remodeled by Premier Motor Coach Services, Tucson. Don't know if that included graphics.

The Lexa makes a good canvas for a billboard with it's flush windows and roof mounted awnings!
I hope they are able to restore it to it's original condition when the campaign is over.
