Bidding on a bus without knowing about the rust...

[WalterNY]

Thanks for being my choir of reason, folks!


Curious about those who've gotten their buses at auction-- how many details were left in the dark, either strategically or sheerly out of ignorance, along the lines of Cheese's ordeal.



I've been finding it really hard to get good answers out of transportation super's in various school districts I've been talking to, and they never wanna tell you what's on those maintenance records!

We bought ours at auction ... but my husband drove from NYS to Alabama to look at the 4 buses that were up for auction and to talk to the mechanic at the school about them. He got to see them and drive each one of them. We got very valuable information, and it gave us the confidence we needed to bid.
