Well we bought it. Ended up paying around $15k.
Drove it home about 7 hours and it drives beautifully. Now to begin the work!

Also, we dropped it off at the local Freighliner. For $180 they did a bumper-to-bumper inspection which was worth every penny for our own peace of mind - if you purchasing a new bus, see if there is one near you. They are great.

Congratulations! And contrary to what some people may say, You got a great price on that bus. In fact, I would call it a steal. Air ride and the generator alone are so worthwhile and luxury items that cost more during the build let alone a bus with 100k miles is barely getting broken in. Good for you! Post some pics when you can.

Congratulations! 15k is not an unreasonable price for the bus since it passed inspection. You are getting highway gearing with 6th unlocked, generator, generator powered AC, bus powered AC, a nice locking front door, underbody storage and I belive an exhaust brake. Plus it was gov maintained.
