U.S bus corp ???

Curious to see if anyone here has a short bus made by u.s bus corp. My sister and bf bought a 2006 e350 6.0😬 short bus. U.S bus corp closed after 06-07 and became trans tech bus, I've tried calling and emailing them to try and see if I can get my hands on any info/electrical schematics. If anyone has any info would be greatly appreciated. U.S bus corp was in New York so I'm assuming only members in the north east would be familiar

I've heard of them. I think we serviced a few council on aging vans that had the bodies made by them. No clue on schematic sources, I hope you're not SOL.

Good luck!

A 2006 E350 with a 6.0 would be Ford's version of the VT365. The had some issues from the factory that can be addressed but at a cost. Google "bulletproof 6.0" and you will see what I am talking about.

Unless you are very mechanical I would avoid the 6.0/vt365.
