Operators still love them the way they take off with larger 11.8 Liter ISM's.

I guess these workhorses are sticking longer than expected like the 1997 and 2000 Orion Vs.

[@Gillig07]

when will these buses be retired?

[@BraydenBachlott]

Likely when the next batch of XD40s enters service.

Isn't the 89 Metrobus similar to the 89M Metrobus, Brayden Bachlott?

Hello Brayden I have a question is it possible to get a engine of Cummins ISL EP40 like the DE40LF in a Hybrid 2005 Toyota car? I just got my car and wondering if somehow I can do it thanks!

[@BraydenBachlott]

Don't think a Cummins ISL will fit in the engine compartment of a Toyota unfortunately.
