Selling my RV-Bus due to new importation rules to Mexico - 8,000 USD

Hi there!

I am selling a wonderful RV Bus Thomas Transitliner 1993 RE in very good conditions located in San Diego, California.

I drove it from Massachusetts to California last month without problems at about 55mph and once I got here I realized that as mexican I cannot import anymore this kind of vehicles.

The bus is shown in youtube under "1993 Thomas RV Conversion - SOLD"
The guy Brian Bailey sold it to me and now I am reselling it.
It is under my name now and the vehicle has the same description as the previous seller:

---

"I purchased this bus used in 2010 and converted into a self contained RV. The bus was previously used as a ferry shuttle in the summer and never driven in the winter. As such there is very little rust and no rot under the body. The bus was operated on 80% biodiesel while in service.

Currently registered and titled as an RV. No special license required to operate this vehicle. Bus currently runs and drives.

Comfortably sleeps 6. 4 full length (over 6' long) bunks in a train berth style setup for comfort and privacy. Queen size master bed space in the back. Full bathroom with toilet, sink, tub and shower. Hot water from a stainless steel constant hot water heater. 35 gallon fresh water capacity. 25 gallon black water and 25 gallon gray water waste tanks. Dual 20 lbs propane bottles supply the water heater and 25,000 BTU furnace. Cold rooftop A/C with integrated electric heater. Mini fridge, microwave, and kitchen sink. Front living room seats 10 not including driver's seat.

All windows are professionally tinted. Every window has a screen to keep out the bugs (except the emergency exits). Two rooftop emergency exits double as vents. Three windows also double as exits.

This bus has a top speed of 55 miles an hour. Not for long haul travel (because is slow). Perfect for seasonal properties or close vacations (under 50 miles).

The front windshield is cracked and will need to be replaced to pass inspection. The bus has a divided, flat glass windshield that will be inexpensive to replace.

We used this bus for many family vacations. My kids are older now and it's time for this RV to go to a new home."

Besides,
I installed a battery isolator that powers the 4 coach batteries while running.
Made a preventive maintenance before departing 3,000 miles.
Have changed oil and fuel filters and right now is ready for the new owner.

The vehicle will be sold at 8,000 USD and could be delivered in San Diego County.
To be seen in San Ysidro, CA. (San Diego County)
