  • Como añoro el sonido de esos motores!!! Desde que cerró la ONDA acá en Uruguay no hubieron mas autobuses de verdad en este país y creo que desde que dejaron de fabricarse los GMC con motor Detroit Allison en ninguna parte del mundo tampoco. Por que no volverán a fabricar máquinas como estas!!! El futuro no siempre es mejor, en mi´país aun se ven circular algunos de estos buses.

  • Hi bus people. I have a 77 GMC 4905A which I converted and finished it in 1997. TRook 3-1/2 years to do this. But Im in great need of the glass for the door intery. My bus ciunversion was brokeninto & ransacked and tore off many things, It took me 3 months just in labor to fix it, But I can not find the door window for it., Even the MCI in Illinois sold their stock, but to who? Does anybody have this windo in grerat condition & will sell it to me. I here 4106, and 4108,4107 are the same windo.

  • Hey, I remebered a Tour bus company that still use Buffalos, in Washington DC in spring of 1995. I remeber this because, on a class trip to Washington DC or sponser use one of this company Buffalos to take us from Reagan Airport to our Hotel. The rest of the time we had MCI buses, but I remeber seeing those Buffalos taking people around on tours. Do any know about that bus companys or there name.

  • i live in dc and I remember a company called ABC tours on R.I. Ave that were using them

  • There still a company that charter Buffalo. I belive they in Nebrakas and I belive there name is Aburn Trails.

  • beautiful engine sound

  • Grumman 870's that sounded like this used to be fairly common in NYC/MTA LIB. That's Detroit Diesel power!

  • the buffalo buses haha I remeber riding those on NJT on the 319 nyc to ac route when they used to stop in freehold

  • So this buses dose have a V730 transmission. There was another video where people was posting that it had a HT 740. Seeing that most GM coaches had V drive, it make more since that it has a V730.

  • GM Parlor coach to be exact, deck and a half from GMC

  • the detroit 8V71?,they don't make them like they used to. And the bus itself (The Great Buffalo) is in a class all by itself. I've drove these during my rookie years at new jersey transit when they were in service in the late 1980's. The only problem i had with them were the power steering. your weight had to be up in order to handle a PH series. Aaaah those great memories. And i thank you for them.

  • Your Welcome

  • Now, that's what I call a ROARING sound of the 8V71!

  • Is that a GM Buffalo Bus?

  • yup. The great Buffalo! Trailways used these alot back in the 70s.

  • Damn good 8v71. I love that engine.

  • That is a great sound.

  • Yeah!!!! The 8V71 can Run!!!!!!!11
