Shuttle bus (used) sales in the Oregon?

[Seeria]

I'm thinking of buying a short bus or shuttle style bus to replace Fran but I'm not having much luck finding ones in Oregon under $5k.
Anyone have leads to sales lots selling these types?

not many places sell like year model 2000 or so in ore, as the places i know are running theirs the full 15 yrs. many more busses are for sale in washington, and occasionally are listed in the wa state sales. oregon state sales dont have them very often. i have seen two dozen or so at a time for sale in wa, and they go really cheap when they sell a whole row of them at a time. most of the time they go for around 1000 when there is a lot of them for sale.

Look in the back lots of aiport shuttle services. Also senior communties use them often-or towns that have shuttle buses.

there is several on cl in portland, etc here.. most are older and pretty much run out.. even the newer ones dont look that good... the other thing i have discovered while looking at them is that many dont take care of the brakes, the trannies are marginal, etc... i think it will be kinda hard to find a pretty new one that is cheap in ore here.

Thanks guys. I've about a year to get one so I'll keep searching. I can do north CA, WA, ID, Utah, NV if need be. Just not having much luck finding places selling anything worth buying so far.
Anyone have names of auction or reseller spots in those states?

I wrote this little app a while ago to help me look for things on craigslist. It will send you emails when something pops up matching your criteria. Might be helpful.
