Re: CageFree Family Searching for the Perfect Bus

i do have a great jacuzzi bus, but it's more of a party/limo bus than a great place for a family to live...sorry. good luck with your search....did you see this bus?

i don't know where the photos went, but it looks like a great deal.

Re: CageFree Family Searching for the Perfect Bus

I drive a semi for a living, The engins are very touchy as far as coolant, well all fluid for that matter. Hills are a struggle for any engine, but the compression fired diesel, really need a good coolant system. They heat fast, so long as you keep it cool, you'll be golden.

I'd rather have a diesel than anything, but the prices these days my lord. For an unrefined fuel, it is getting out of hand. Keep in mind if you are going to do alot of hill climbing, investing in a large capacity raditor, and taking the clutch fan out will serve you well.

Re: CageFree Family Searching for the Perfect Bus

Your welcome, I forgot to mention taking the clutch fan out you'll need a spacer where the clutch was. You might be able to find one at a semi dealership. I doubt you'd find it anywhere else. They work well if your going to be out west especially on I-15 in CA and NV, it makes the engine terribly loud, but nice and cool.
