Buses at Barrett-Jackson

[makemineatwostroke]

In case you guys missed it the Flx went for 45,000 and the Eagle 50,000 to much money for me for a model 10 have a great evening I am going to try my luck at the tables

[SmoothJazz]

If your information is correct, then Tekebird's comment that the Eagle would go for a fraction of the Flx, proved to be wrong... Imagine that.

[makemineatwostroke]

Sjazz; don't go there I was passing information for the members     have a great day

[VAN]

I was very dissapointed after we all sat down to watch the event on speed,as we counted down the docket #'s waiting anxiously for the flx and the eagle to go on the block and wouldn't you know it they never telivised the bidding on the two  .what a let down . well good luck at the tables two stroke .Good Day.

Another reason for Gov intervention on behalf of busnts, we are constantly discriminated against!!!  I have trouble with insurance, they do not want to register our vehicles, parks do not want us to stay at them. Now they are ashamed to show us on TV and want to pretend we do not exist.  We should take our plight to the ALCU, maybe even get Sharpton involved. Perhaps we could form a PAC and buy a couple politicians?      Jim

[Len Silva]

I'm afraid a PAC with the word "NUTS" in the title might not have much influence.

Not to mention you couldn't buy any politician with the meager pittance the busnuts could spare     

[HB of CJ]

kyle has it right.  They's don'ts come $cheap$!  How much would it cost anyway to buy a Sinister or Reprehensible?.....I mean Senator or Representative?  He he he. 

Have some rich friends who go to Barrett Jackson about every 2 years.  They tell me EVERYTHING, in their opinions, goes for about $TWICE$ its worth. 

[white-eagle]

obviously not the Eagle

ROTFLMAO

[Charles in SC]

Maybe all the busnuts in the land should do like the farmers did some years ago with their tractors and go to Washington and pull up on the front lawn of the capitol and protest. As for me I probably will not make that one. I do not think their tractors had license tags on them. As I remember it there was a huge snow storm that week and the tractors were the only things that could get around.

Only use for sharpton ,A punching bag!

Speed Tv did televise the auction of the Eagle.  The auctioneer did seem like he was in a big hurry and the auction went pretty quick.  On many cars the auctioneer spends a lot more time and gets a lot more money that way.

[Kwajdiver]

I believe the Flex came out of Florida, perhaps the Ocala area.  The reason I said that, Friday in Gainesville, Florida, I meet a new bus owner that said if just bought his MCI-9 from a friend that had a Flex at foe mention auction.  This coach he had was beautiful.  Don said the bus had been leased by Regan and Bush Sr, during there campains for President.  He was on his way to North Florida to send there first night in it.

I've just sent Don the information on the board here.  Hope he will show up.

I missed the program, but one of my co-workers said he saw these buses on TV over the weekend.
