We don't all make our builds the same or even use out buses the same.
Maybe you can teach me something I don't know. This is where we find that out. I'm not a tire guy and that's why I go to visit Mr Schwab. Considering my driving record I am not affecting anyone's ability to get insurance.
I know you're talking about replacing tires in ten years. I don't know what my tires will look like in ten years. If they show any signs of weakness I may replace them, especially if I'm actually going to be putting on some road miles. If I only continue using this as a fishing bus at high mountain lakes I may have the same tires for a very long time. Probably longer than I'll last.

Sorry if you're getting upset. I thought this was discussion.

Dude.... PM for this. This isn't the place.

WHile I'm fine with having a discussion, this is a thread about buses for sale.
Any time you're in FL you're welcome to camp out where I keep my bus and I'll even buy the beers.

Actually doesn't look like a bad deal if it's in the shape they say it is in and if the conversion was done properly. Nice layout, low mileage engine. Only downside is the engine is gas and it has hydraulic brakes, but for the money these could be overlooked.

Looks nice. I'd drive it all over San Francisco and Berkeley and give people fits. The people in Berkeley once complained that some of the fire trucks had the America Flag.

I will need to drill my own oil well to feed that thing.

Amtran was a Navistar subsidiary that was shaken up in the early 00's, in a reorg to become IC Bus, which was Ward until it filed for bankruptcy in the early 80s.

I think Bill Clinton "bailed out" Ward back in the day.

did superior have something to do with ward? a lot of the ward busses I saw it seemed they looked very similar to superiors.. the sloped driver window, the inside deforster units were the same, same style switch panels, etc..

You know, most of us are already on bus overload with our own conversion. I wonder if there's a way we could help noobs find buses in their specific areas, say by zip code or something not to personal. We find buses where they are and hopefully a noob will pick up on them, by hit or miss. It just seems that a lot of people come here and they're really looking for help to get a nice bus the first time. Someone with an idea of how to make this work speak up.
