    Those remind me of the movie Speed (same looking bus, just different color). Buy one, take one to a local highschool, embrass the heck out of your kid. Dad...why are you driving that thing. Or...I don't know him honestly!!!!!! haha.

    Glad to hear you sold them though =D.

    RF, I had to drive one across Sacramento a while ago, and people at bus stops were waving at me to stop, and pick them up. At a stoplight, two elder women just pulled the door open and stepped up, and I had a hard time explaining that Im not the bus they needed. Would have taken them down the road a few blocks, but the liability is just too great.

    Not sure they even understood what was going on.

    We are keeping one bus for a while, just to have one. Fun to bomb around in occasionally.
