You see a lot of the Maxxforce engines in Monoco RV's they seem to be good engines,IH owned Monaco for several years and the chassis manufacturing was done by IH

Obviously you got a good one. I just remember the problems with fire apparatus that had them and the numerous law suits.

Hi chessie,, I ran across the bus boys in Blythsville Ark a few years back at Tom's getogether at a redone Greyhound bus terminal. They had more than a booth in an empty store, a MCI 6. Several scenic cruisers were there and met some great people, lvmci...

Here's another that was forgotten pretty much even before it really got going. The EAGLE 25. There was only one built and I think they were building another one that never got finished. The stalwart EAGLE people didn't like the way it looked but that's just personal taste and have to respect it. I could have seen it in service as a seated coach along side MCI and PREVOST.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention. There's more eye candy than you can handle on there. Very nice tribute to William Luke. He had several interesting books. 97 years is a great run to be sure. Keep his family in our prayers.
