Title: New Plate
Post by: Ednj on January 07, 2008, 02:57:11 PM
62 degrees here today, they say it will be warmer tomorrow.
I received my new plate today (see picture).
I should have gotten 2, now all I need is to get my bus back from Ron so I can put the plate on it.

WOW looks like the plate I got when I got my Bus. Mine has blue letters.
Also at the bottom it shows  PRO/BUS Long Beach CA.

Bryce, Myself, and I'm sure a few others want to know why Setra, Man, Vanhool, Dina ...etc. got snubbed on this plate deal ;)

Really:  when that first came out Dina was not in the picture north of the border, Setra was not active in the US nor was MAN or Van Hool.


NOTICE which brand is first if you read like a westerner

I guess I'll just have to make my own plate that says Setra Rules/MCI Drools. ;D Brian D. should appreciate that joke.

But some of us other MCI owners might disagree with your opinion.......

With tongue-in-cheek.....

Easy Paul it's Van Drools, Mexican Coach Immigrants, Generic Motor Coach, Dinosours,and lower forms, and then of course the near perfect creations of Kassbohrer the Eagle, which evolved into the perfect bus the Setra which rules! LOL!
;D  BK  ;D


Tongue to sore to be in cheek from biting it! LOL!

Ahh the age old fun of good naturedly bashing brands that one doesn't own. Makes me miss owning a snowmobile(Arctic Rat, Ski Don't, POLARIS= pull off lake and repair in springtime) or a light truck(where's my calvin peeing on something sticker).

Ahhh yes it is sorta something like that! But keep in mind that even though I sometimes make fun of MCI we still own and regularly operate one (102A3)! As a matter of fact it hits the road as often as a Setra! But it is slowly beginning to realize it's days as a fully seated charter bus are numbered with us! It's either going to be sold or converted into a day/exectutive/limo style coach where it can still serve in revenue service and also be used as an occasional use conversion. (no full timimg yet!) Also that way most of the conversion costs can be covered by the company and writen off as a tax deduction! LOL!
