Things to consider when buying a bus

The first consideration is.........is this bus a diesel?
2. Is the engine able to do what I want/need?
3. Can I repair or know where to go to fix my bus?
4. Can I afford this bus?
5. Are there any buses that are broke/need repair available?
6. Is this bus gonna change my life?
7. Where will the bus be stored/kept while work is in progress?
8. Is this bus too big/small?
9. Are the used parts available and at what cost?
10. What are the changes needed to use this bus?

Any other ideas could help the next bus buyer.............Frank
