Yo baul104, You like school buses too! I really dig those Thomas Saf-T-Liners and the new Thomas buses with the Freightliner hood. Plus I can never forget those Ol Skool Thomas with the Navistar DT-466 and T-444 engines

I'm not much of a school bus fanatic though, but I sometimes record them as my hobby...

Hey Baul, Does DPS still got the Thomas Pushers with those big black mirrors?

[baul104]

Possibly...

Sounds nice for a school bus.

[baul104]

Yes, it does sounds nice.

actually i believe these have a mercedes diesel engines in them. our district, which isnt far from detroit, has thomas freightliner buses running form 1998-2006. the 98-99 buses have cummins engines in them. the 03 and 04s have mercedes diesels in them and i think the 05s do to. the 06s have cats if im not mistaken. the district next to ours uses international buses ( not sure who makes the body ) with the t444e engine in them.

I used to drive this bus. Great power for a 7.1 liter diesel. This bus turns so nice I could fit it down tight residential streets day-in and day-out without incident.
