Very neat!! I didn't know they had CEs that new. Wyoming's bus numbers (from whaf I have seen) are accurate to the model year, the first two digits being the model year.

Yeah, but when I was taking pictures of bus 073 I know that was not a 2007, that was a 2008 ICCE, as I could’ve told by the maxForce engine, so they could’ve numbered it a year after, but only Wyoming knows

How does it take to retire busses? How do you know they are retired? Can stored long term storage busses get rebuilt or put back into service get a 2nd life?

6 of the buses in my district retired the 5 of them which were 2004 icce rrtired in the 2022-2023 school year and got replaced with new 2023 icces and 1 was a 2007 icce that’s been sitting in the corner of the lot for 4 years all 6 of them have not been used as sub buses and they all won’t start and thier not in the lot anymore

There are ways to save money on bus ownership, but before you pull the trigger and buy a bus, you need to ask yourself the following questions. 1. Do I have money to buy the bus? If I do, then would I rather have the money or the bus? Do I have enough to cover the sales tax, buyers' fees, or any other fees associated with the sale? Read the entire sales listing and description. 2. Do I make enough money to maintain ownership of the bus? Basically, can I afford storage, insurance, property taxes, fuel, modifications, repairs, and any other potential costs that might come up? 3. What am I going to do with this bus? Do I have the income to support what I want to do with it? 4. Do I have time to enjoy the bus? If it needs to be kept far away from where you live or if you already have a busy school/work schedule, can you set aside time for your bus? 5. Do I have a place to keep the bus? If I can't get myself or the bus legal to drive on the road, is there room to drive the bus around my storage location? 6. Can I enjoy the bus? Will I be able to tinker with it and drive it? 7. How will I get it from where I buy it to where it's being stored? 8. Do I currently have the knowledge to work on the bus if something breaks? If not, do I know someone who can help and is willing to help? 9. What is my monthly budget? How much am I willing and able to spend on my bus per month? 10. What condition is the bus in? Do I have the time, money, and knowledge to get it fixed to where it can fit my needs? Sorry for the long comment, but there's a lot to think about when buying your first bus. It is a huge responsibility and can cost a lot of money. I plan on doing an actual planned out video on this topic at some point, I just put these in the order in which they came to mind. As for my costs, I pay about $160 per month for storage and insurance on my bus. I also pay another $50 per month for a storage unit to store the seats that insurance required that I remove. These costs do not include fuel, repairs, or modifications. As for the buses themselves, I've paid as little as $1,500 and as high as $6,200. I know people who have bought them for much cheaper. I hope this helps!

I havent driven one of these on the road yet, just on the loop around Herbert Hoover High School, but the blindspots really werent all that bad. I dont like how the entry way is smaller, but the new door opening mechanism is neat. I could see it being an issue in the future, though. I think the dash in the 2nd gen has a better layout, but the 3rd gen has a better gauge cluster, steering wheel, and drivers seat. I do like the 3rd gen, but I wouldnt say its better or worse than the 2nd gen.
