I have the same bus but with the 260hp Mercedes. Got her up to 75mph, no problem. It will go faster, but I won't. LOL

It for sure moves faster than I'm comfortable with. Runs very smooth at 65mph.

I have the same bus, with 6th gear it will hit 80 but it's really happy at 65.
It also weighs 21,000 lbs. with a full tank.
