Actually, Gillig offered two rear axles on some of their coaches, and I believe that black beauty is a Gillig.

This one is for sale in Georgia http://atlanta.craigslist.org/rvs/258104409.html

I'd much rather have a bus than an RV, or a truck pulling a trailer in an accident.
Crown that runs WVO here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=012&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=220074616955&rd=1,1
I'm picturing a nice LCD flatscreen up over the drivers head for the family to watch.
I'd like some nacho's please.

One compelling advantage of a motorhome over a truck/trailer is having an enclosed toilet. We may have mentioned this in an earlier thread. The primary cause of urinary incontinence in the US today is high blood pressure medication. For many people travel without a toilet is inconvenient to verge of impossible.

That is one of the nicest looking buses I have ever seen.
I've always had a love for the old buses, like the Flxible Clipper used in the movie RV (with Robin Williams).I'd love to have one with a rear diesel, one of the big 4 cyl versions. It wouldn't be fast,and I wouldn't be in a hurry.

Also like the line "looking to get $16,500 to 15,000 for it."
Well I'm looking to spend $6,500 to $5,000.
