[Brentkolb1996]

Did you see my message? just wondering.

[9sb19]

I did. I'm sorry, man. I've been very busy lately.

[zusca100]

[9sb19]

I got some of the EF to post. I'm getting to them. I like to do mine in order of when I recorded them and they are up next after the C2s.

[schindlerman96]

I do guess you miss the good ol days with 19 and Mr. allen

[9sb19]

I miss my old life a lot.

[Brentkolb1996]

sent you a vieo response it about a VT365

[9sb19]

I never did get it. Where'd you send it to?

[alex40356]

is this the bus that u showed in the 2003 IC CE light check?

[9sb19]

Yes sir. Same bus I drove, started up, warning lights, a lot of videos. I even have some of a driver interior tour and examples of how things works. Just haven't uploaded it yet.

[9sb19]

Thank you, bro. I appreciate the comments.

[schindlerman96]

So does your friends mom or whoever it was not drive 40 no more Jerred

[9sb19]

No. She hasn't for a year now.

[schindlerman96]

@9sb19 does she a drive a bus at all still or did she quit driving all together

[9sb19]

She didn't really quit. She kind of got fired.

[ikolkyo967]

So what happened to 19.

[9sb19]

I don't ride that bus any longer. I moved out of my dad's house and I rode this bus for two weeks, then put on an EF.

[ikolkyo967]

@9sb19 That sucks 19 was a pretty cool bus

[9sb19]

I know. I loved that bus to death. Lost it. Lost my old life. Lost every Thomas Ford we ever owned. Lovely life I live, isn't it? When does it end?

[9sb19]

That's weird. Do you mean the regeneration process on it? How do you like that GMC? I've never been on one before. Might be either antifreeze or transmission fluid in it.

[mbta1051]

This reminds me of my old school district's CE200s. Except they were AmTrans with T444Es and hydraulic brakes. I remember these were some of the first ones with the new 6 speed transmissions...

[9sb19]

Dang. I bet they were better than sliced bread!

I love how this one is if you have your foot about 1/2-3/4 the way; the transmission will launch forward and slide into gear when it shifts. Causing the engine to hit some low RPMs and then the muffler just hit a low growl.

[ICRE300]

Nice video. How is everything this year? Why are you riding #40?

[9sb19]

Thanks man.

Ugh, don't get me started. Everything sucked in the world when I got back from BCT.

It's a long story. But now I'm on 11, a 2008 Thomas EF.

[Robinsonjj11]

oh okay i live in pennsylvania

[9sb19]

Yeah, it various from state to state. What he did is what TN requires.

[Robinsonjj11]

thats not the proper way to go over train tracks

[9sb19]

Why do you say that? He had the hazards on, opened the door, and stopped completely. What did he do wrong?

[Robinsonjj11]

@9sb19 he was suppose to shift into lowest gear then proceed across the tracks then shit up into drive... and i didnt hear him apply the parking brake

[9sb19]

They aren't required to do that here. What he did was exactly what my state mandates for school buses.

What state do you live in?
