[@LuckyLion1378]

Huh. Didn’t know the signal sound was different on this than the newer ones. Im used to the new ones, but that sound is still engraved in my head from the old busses

[@isendhelp]

I like the LEDs in the back and like how Bluebird has made the lower brake light flush. 25 yr driver

[@vj3137]

One of the buses that pick up kids at my school just got one of these, and funny enough that the previous bus was a 2014 Vision.

[@dirtycontrytimelol9313]

I used to ride a bus like that last year

[@niks_crazy_world]

I miss hearing the classic bluebird flashed beep. But otherwise this seems similar to the older visions in many ways.

Blue bird and international ic rocks.

@aron34. Here’s my list of bus brands: 1. Bluebird 2. IC 3. Thomas

Ryan Butcher This is one of three new buses (7, 8, and 9).

[@ryanbutcher2050]

I'm very well aware of that..I happen to live in Three Rivers.And my aunt lives in Mendon

I love the the LEDs in the back if I owned buses they would be on every one of them and led strobes for the warning lights

Cool bus wish my bus driver drove this bus

[@mgk2600]

I'd like to see this bus max out at 140mph

[@DanAndZay]

I agree but thats illegal

[@landenkozel1634]

Cool bus!! 👍 😀

[@0312Productions]

I like the way international has the silent flashers so when your at the rail road your not hearing them unlike this bus.

[@ICFE300]

Nashawn03-12 I agree! 100%!

[@jackiebme1]

ICFE300 you got brand new buses

[@0312Productions]

Tramon Brown IC/International what ever you want to call them have that feature too.

[@ICFE300]

Tramon Brown The noise suppression switch does not silence the noise made by the 4-way flashers as Nashawn03-12 said.

[@cdcruizer05]

Those flashers are annoying

[@cspennington12]

+ICFE300 we just got 12 new bluebird vision school buses these past 2-3 years. They are all the 2014-2016 models. 4 of them have hydraulic brakes and only one has air brakes. Bus No. 8, 19, 21, 51, 75, 76, 205, 206, 207, 208, 210, 214, 220. Sadly they all have hydraulic brakes. But only the handicap buses in my county have air everything minus brakes. Which I personally don't mind hydraulic brakes. I've never really road on a bus that has air brakes. Never road a bus that has air brakes. Never have. And I don't think I ever will at my county's rate. Lol. The old spare buses have air brakes depending on the number.

[@ICFE300]

Hydraulic brakes are not common around here. Only a few districts are entirely hydraulic. I prefer air brakes. I am not impressed by Vision's either.

[@cspennington12]

The new one's?

[@ICFE300]

Even the new ones. CE's are my favorite along with any IC product. I like Blue Bird transit style school buses though. TC2000's and All American's are decent.

[@cspennington12]

I like the 2008 to 2010 Bluebird Visions. The TC2000's just look like they are too slow. Acceleration wise. I have seen a flat nose IC bus and it's nice. They are like pretty fast. A little faster then the Vision. The 2008-2014 model years that is. A shame that they have decreased the power in them. And have made them more sluggish.

[@fargeeks]

ICFE300 I miss the 80s blue bird all American FE buses I no longer see those anymore I remember they have rather low revving deisel engines and gas heaters and the steering wheel had a vanilla cream color on it I'm talking about that bus with a square grille on the front with chrome plates rails going across the front of the bus

[@arome-lz5ef]

Since when did buses start Putting 140mph on Their speed Odometer?

[@cspennington12]

+arome3104 It has a mode for the speed. Only reason why it goes up to 140 "mph" would be the fact that it has a MPH mode and a KPH mode for the speedometer. So it changes the sensitivity of the speedometer. Kind of like GMC and Chevrolet with their new setup in the speedometers.

[@cspennington12]

The vision has got some speed to it if they aren't limited by a speed limiter.

[@yk.kermit4850]

The bluebirds in Louisiana are way different than the ones you have

[@alonzogray9375]

Is that bus a dot series Bluebird vision

[@leteizjordan4504]

I live in Florida we have the propane visions

[@rebeccabell3331]

I wish that ALL bus manufacturers would go to the push button standard for the transmission - just because there are so many "old school" drivers who simply do not take the time to put their buses in neutral at all stops. This is just a bug of mine - maybe if it was less of a hassle in doing so, they all would comply. *Most* districts won't pay the extra for this luxury - I don't feel it should be a luxury at all - some people simply refuse to comply. I've rode with way too many "veteran" drivers who just don't take the time....

[@michaeltaggart9714]

+Rebecca Bell More drivers need to be doing this. it's important. many don't even apply the parking brake at stops either. good point, additional enforcement should be done on this!

[@willicd102892]

I agree with this 110%, BUT that may not solve the problem. It may even create more problems. Similar to the issue of getting the "old school" drivers to do their pre-trip. So you switch from the DVR handbooks to the Zonar system. Or you spec auto adjusting mirrors and set up a mirror grid to help ensure that everyone's mirrors are adjusted correctly, but you've got that one old fart whose right flat mirror will never see the rear tires touching the ground. Stating, "Well how am I supposed to see to change lanes?" Um, your convex mirror sir/ma'am, and why are you in the left lane anyway? Who are you passing going < 35? My regional 3rd party tester said it so accurately the other day that, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks".

[@AllAmericanFE]

I drive transit buses and they have a feature I am shocked is not on school buses. When the rear door is opened the brakes are locked in the applied position (Rear door interlock is the name for it). On the 2005+ model buses they will not release until the door is completely shut and the brake pedal is applied again. When this feature fails or is out of adjustment (one of our 2005's does this a lot) it locks on and you have to restart the bus in order for the brakes to be released. Why can't this be implemented on school buses? Yes you should still apply the parking brake and put the bus in neutral but this is an added level of security to make sure the bus doesn't go anywhere.

[@randslites]

The push button transmissions actually have a longer delay when engaging in gear. The lever selector is much faster for stop & go operations.

[@alfarrell8736]

This is a big bus number 8 with a 77 passenger.

[@river1403]

why does the bus use DEF?

[@christianstowing]

Sébastien Haché cause its diesel..

[@willicd102892]

Because it has the cummins SCR system which calls for DEF.

[@randslites]

All commercial vehicles built after 2010 require DEF.

[@fargeeks]

Some of these vision buses have deisel engines and some have the Propane powered engines, and there's also a engine option that runs on compressed natural gas I swear the propane powered engines were designed to not last because they tend to rev very high before even going to the next gear in the transmission

[@GlynRobinson]

nice bird. never understood the tail pipe out the side. looks cheap.

[@fmccloud]

I think it's because of the diesel particulate filler that they put on all new buses. Semi trucks got their stacks removed to reduce backpressure

[@AllAmericanFE]

They still have not perfected the door mechanism lol. Those things are dangerous when they stick shut like that.

[@mon2u]

AllAmericanFE My dad drives a school bus and he has a 2015 blue bird vision. The door is exactly like that. That always bugged me about riding his bus.

It has one now. The district added it later. A bus only comes with a cross arm if you order it with one. Not everybody does.

Keegan S. You mean the Thomas or the International? I'm guessing it's a rip off of a international CE bus

[@michaeltaggart9714]

Vision sounds like junk, rides and vibrates like a tin can on wheels and comes complete with a cramped drivers area. the C2 is definitely they way to go people.

Tell that to my district. There's only 2 C2 that go to my school. The rest are BBs and Internationals.
