Eric B 1,073 Posted October 14, 2009 Share #6 Posted October 14, 2009 You can also tell that those signs are painted on, as the blue glow would not be seen in the daytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is technically the longest non-artic or non-MCI bus onthe road at (get this) 42 feet (gasp lol) next is the NGs & the OGs at 40.5 feet then the RTS at 40 feet.
