This promotion was about the ONLY non-April-Fool's-Day jokes to occur on April 1st. Congrats dude.

[@richardmoore2590]

Wow, James, Peoria Charter is so very fortunate to have a knowledgeable personable CEO. You are definitely the epitome of what a CEO should be, caring, compassionate yet strong enough to bring a company into the future. You have my upmost respect, and I couldn’t be more proud. So very glad that you will still make videos and occasionally get behind the wheel. Godspeed my friend.

[@MotorcoachWorld]

Wow, thank you!

Sheesh, Congrats James,

[@michaelquillen2679]

Congrats, James!!! Your ideas of how to be a good leader are great. As a former middle-level manager, all I can say is make sure your staff is well- trained, remove the obstacles that keep them from doing a great job, equip them with the tools the need to do a great job, and get the hell out of the way and let them do great things! But don't forget, when they do great things, let them know they are great! People don't quit jobs, they quit poor leaders. Best of luck in your new journey!

[@paulbergen9114]

That was oh so true at the transit system I worked for. There were several of us who had the gumption and Leadership to make things work But as time went on the management level swelled and most of them didn't have any concept of how things work. I always made it a point to say those simple words please and thank you and I meant it and the people knew that it was from the heart. Even though certain days could be tougher challenges I actually enjoyed going to work to see if I could beat the odds and keep everything going smoothly because that's how the transportation industry is

[@benwilson9150]

Congratulations James! As a bus nut you have opened up a world the nuts don’t see and along the way you have portrayed your company and you professional in an absolutely amazing way. I would love to see you make the occasional video about the trials and tribulations of being a CEO running a motor coach company or maybe even some of the day to day running of a charter company. Congratulations once again and with you at the wheel there is a bright future ahead!

[@MotorcoachWorld]

Thank you. Yes I sure will include the life of a CEO edition ever so often. Great idea

[@GalenlevyPhoto]

Congratulations! You made it far to the top! You will have a great leadership of the company. :)

[@vehiclesonajourney]

Congratulations James on becoming CEO of Peoria Charter! I bet you'll probably be a great CEO since you seem so knowledgeable and you want to do what is best for the company. And, of course, you're a bus nut, geek, and enthusiast and who's better to run a bus company than a bus nut, geek, and enthusiast?

[@TM15R]

Congrats James, I'm almost as happy as you. A more deserving person cannot be found. A great future awaits you, your family, and your youtube followers.

Congrats James, I saw this a week ago on PCC page. I am kinda the same way. I don't drive a bus anymore but I would only drive here in Denver for arrow cause the Fleet manager gene was such a smart guy, I only wanted to drive for the best. I even only bought busses from arrow when i started my own company, something to be said about good companies. I bought my first bus at 17. so 25 years ago. even though I don't play with buses anymore, Still part f the motorcoach world. Congrats James!! BTW am a setra boy at heart. Thank Gene for that. :-)

James, I am so sorry for being late on this message. I just came across this one. I am soooo happy one of us has been promoted to a higher position. If ANYONE deserves it, it's you! Just remember you can't get Operator out of your system. You never will. Which I am proud that you said, "no matter what happens". I appreciate you James for making "Motorcoach World", keep up the good work, and LOVE the fact you still have the inner child. I have a LARGE bus collection, and Hot Wheels, AND still play with them. Good luck, and God's Blessings to you! I hope you do keep it till the 100th year.

I haven't seen a video of yours in a while. What a wonderful surprise this was for me to see this today. Congratulations to you. I'm not a bus enthusiast per se. But, I have watched a number of your videos over the years becasue you make them so entertaining. You love your job and the hard work has paid off.
