27 - Back to the Shop

Just took bus 27 out for a test drive and ate some lunch. Time to go back to work and finish the day now. There's some videos of this bus from back when I was in school, about 10 years ago. She's a 2004 (2005 model) IC CE 300. 215 DT466 mated to the Allison 2000 series transmission. Rear air ride, driver's seat, and door. Factory LED warning lights and stop arm, that are all still functioning and perfect 15 years later. This one has clocked, currently as of August 2019, 220 thousand miles. Sadly, it's the final school year for this ol puppy.

The sound of the engine and the wheel noise together just makes my soul and spirit happy! Lol, nice video!
