Here in NJ right now I can buy a fullsize (54 pax) International bus with a T444E, mileage ranging from 130K-200K for between $1500-3000 off of Craigslist. Shorties on the other hand, ranging from very small (4 window), light duty GM based platforms to larger E450 based platforms are going anywhere from $5000-9000
Is there just more demand for shorties? My issue is that I am wedded to a 4WD conversion, otherwise there I'd be pulling the trigger on one of these today. Don't get me wrong, I'd love a 4WD bus on a medium duty platform, but the steering axle alone would cost me $5000 (Dana 80)...
