Thomas bus questions
I'm getting closer to narrowing down what I am looking for in a Thomas bus.
Which buses have high ceiling without roof raise? Are there models that are more likely to have high top or activity bus?
Is a flat front or conventional easier to drive?
I'm leaning towards a conventional so I could cut rear of bus to have porch and/or vehicle hauling. I could also pull a trailer I guess too. So it’s not a must have.
I’m not sure which engines are available in Thomas? Which engine is preferred?
Cummins 8.3
DTA466
DT466
DT466E
T444E Powerstroke in f250+ Ford Trucks
Cat 3126
Cat C7
Which Allison is preferred?
Allison - Automatic
545
645
A2000
MD3060
So many choices... I just need more than 10 or so rows.
