Driving a 2004 Bluebird TC2000 School Bus

[@leteizjordan298]

That just like my baby 298 2003 bluebird All-American Fe handy bus

[@busrailfan]

OMG!! Sounds identical to the 3 Cardinal Coach Lines 2000 TC2000 84 passenger School Buses I used to drive! Very nice!

[@leteizjordan298]

Sounds like ex Indianapolis public schools 289

[@FanOfVacuums2]

@heyto This one doesn't have the Allison AT-545 transmission. The transmission is what made the older ones sound so awesome!

[@matts4290]

@RJM159- Yes, it saves on the brakes, and its safer because it helps keep the brakes cooler, although I wasn't loaded and I wasn't going downhill so downshifting was not required.

[@davidheaton7291]

have you posted a video on the 2013-2015 Bluebird All-American FE.

[@matts4290]

David Heaton -No, I have not been in any blue birds that new.

[@zanjani13]

also very nice sounding engine when going on the highway!

[@matts4290]

@zanjani13- This one is a lot quieter than mine-it makes me jealous, although this one doesn't have the personality mine does.

[@vj3137]

Personality? The only thing that your TC does now is sit around and collect dirt. Literally.

[@zanjani13]

nice job man. nice COE

[@vj3137]

COE?

[@RJM159]

Why did you down shift when you exited the ramp? To save the brakes?

[@FanOfVacuums2]

I think it still has the AT-545, It's just a little different. The older ones were more classic.

[@ndfowler]

No air brakes?

[@vj3137]

Has hydraulic brakes.

[@PhillipASAEdwards]

My fav bus!!!

[@bluebirdvision]

@matts4290 Matt, I down shifted the other day in the car... :)
