the sound is just off the charts. absolutely incredible. definitely the most unique school buses ever made.

This bus sounds just like a Gillig transit bus from the early 1980s more than one from the late 1980s. Great video.

Kinda reminds me of the old Crown buses that I used to ride in when I was younger.

This thing sounds straight BAD ASS!!!

Wish I had a chance to check out one of these old units living in canada we didn't get any

[@DeadChan67]

This bus was a great idea and was executed the right way, only a lack of interest from districts could have sealed the coffin for the production line. Wonder what a BRT school bus would be like?
