Some on my earliest memories are an occasion I went with my mother to High Point, North Carolina. On our way home, I recall sitting in the rear, on the starboard side in a GM 4104, the purr of that Detroit Diesel at fast idle; and seeing rows of gleaming Trailways buses in their lovely red/ivory trim. The smell of diesel always reminds me of that trip.:) Thanks for sharing.

To be honest from personal experience, many buses are beautiful but the up keep can be very costly and a pain in the ass some times breaking down on the road. Ok your 300 + miles away from home and your bus decide it want to break down and cost you a few hundred dollars. 2 aggravating things your pocket is a bit empty and your a long way from home. The solution, buy a good running suv and for the most, you'll be ok.
@BACON-l3t3 жыл бұрын
Yeah but back then there was no Suv's, and if there was not many people could afford them, so the buses were the way to go, and was reliable i rode them allot and never was stranded on side of the road.

I hope the driver doesn't hit a telegraph post because there is nothing between the drivers head and the telegraph post. Very dangerous for the driver because none of the bus is up there in front of him as a cushion.

Funny the irony in this video. He talks about the Blue Ridge Parkway, but also talks about wasteful government spending in 2009. Guess what. The Blue Ridge Parkway was started and built with funds from the government after the Great Depression to spur jobs and the economy. Obama does the same thing in 2009 and this yahoo has a beef with it. You can't have it both ways, dude.
