Ya ooollll

[@FanOfVacuums2]

I very much like the simple and compact dash setup of these.

[@bus3805]

6:36 I am not the biggest fan of them too, there is an option to order them with the rectangular style lights. In MA, (at least our local dealership does this) they order all of their buses with the rectangular style LED marker lights and turn signals. I think there probably is an option on the EFX and HDX to have the bigger lights too.

[@CMLayton88]

Yeah, I just think that for a vehicle that needs to be visible and safe, the little turn signals aren’t good.

[@scottfleming6166]

I was an electrical engineer at Thomas Bus for 13 years. I designed the body wiring harnesses for the EFX. I wasn't happy with the pin lights either. But at that that, there was a lot of politics at Thomas to use them because Bluebird was using them and they costs less. I think they are less likely to be hit by something, a tree limb for instance, but I agree they are not as visible.

[@khannamahir]

This is more interesting than my zoom class. For some reason, I stuck till the end 🤔.

[@aktwothetplhater5568]

Thomas Saf-T Liner EFX's are one of the best!

Lovely looking Bus

[@rainbowsleep770]

Lol you can here a train in the back round nice vid

[@CSXRailfanNick1003]

It’s a Nathan K5HL 3rd Gen

[@CSXRailfanNick1003]

Most of the K5HLs are on the newer GE E44AC/DC (GEVO) locomotives.

[@youtubeman1103]

I am gonna assume that First Student might buy this one since it uses Child Checkmate. I think this bus looks great.

now that is totally awesome videos about your school buses and i hope will be more to coming videos about your school buses .. can't wait to see more totally awesome videos

[@CMLayton88]

They do sell used buses. Just a bit slim on inventory. You can check a somewhat up to date list at www.RohrerBus.com.

[@vibez8095]

Where I live in TN the Saf-T EFX Liner is pretty common.

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

That’s a nice bus! I wonder why IC never made a new FE.

[@Silvergoat72]

Yeah...

[@jackschissler255]

They probably didn’t have a large order for them so decided to end the production. Flat noses are nice to drive but they don’t last as long as regular conventional busses. In fact, I herd the IC RE’s are ending production soon.

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

@@jackschissler255 I don’t think they’ll end ic RE production. I think they’ll redesign it and call it something else.

I doubt the IC RE is going out of production.

Child Checkmate is the best product to use for any school bus. I love using that system.

[@ClawHeHeNum]

watch @claw boss talk shit about this buss

[@00crashtest]

3:31 I haven't ridden in a school bus that is released or facelifted after 2009, so I want to know how new school buses are like in the early 2020s. Passengers cars and light-duty vehicles have changed quite a lot since model year 2009, so I would like to know how it is with heavy-duty vehicles. I don't see any vents above the passenger seats. I also looked at Thomas' website and could not find a list of standard or optional features. Does this generation of bus (released model year 2012) have air conditioning? If it does, is it for the driver only or have the driver vents intentionally been made high velocity (search high velocity air conditioning) in order to cool the entire cabin? Does it come standard with it? What is the MSRP of the base model this bus, and what are the trims available? What is the fuel economy for the EPA's city and highway test cycles?

[@TruckLifeProductions]

Great video, love seeing the Thomas buses. Quick question, where did them screws over the engine compartment cover come from?

[@anulsafipo8078]

i also like the bus

[@workinghardusa]

Cool well done Christopher!

[@waynescaller8833]

I wonder how the bus would handle in the winter in snow coverd roads seeing it's short wheel base

[@PlayWaves1]

Where I live type D busses are way more common than type C.

[@davidmckenzie2168]

I can’t imagine how hard it is to see anything in this tiny side mirrors

[@CMLayton88]

It takes some getting used to, but it’s not terrible. I prefer my C2 mirrors though for sure!

[@JMANWiSS]

Did Thomas finally do away with the Freightliner beeping turn signals? Or is that an option that can be enabled/disabled? I also noticed the red light chime before you opened the door. Our HDX's had those back before Wisconsin had 8 ways, and it was just the two reds up front and rear, and the chime would ding the entire time you had them on without the door open. Our 2013 EFX's didn't do that with the three way switch and the ambers.

[@トガ英語]

The grill looks like a Spartan Smeal engine dang it thomas

[@skyemckee5014]

I wish Washington county Maryland has these buses but they have Blue bird visions, IC CEs, and Thomas C2s only.

[@carwashslayer4235]

Hope new buses have Child Checkmate installed since it is a good alarm. How about the 2015 C2?

[@Thomas-w5g-f8c]

4:32 So many lights. so many noises.😂😂😂😂

[@superior994unit]

The EFX is the HDX but the engine is up front if correct

Why are the side turn signals so small ? That wouldn’t work well in Europe, the side blinker on a vw golf is bigger and more visible
