Ok,I will understand that.Everybody like new bus/car smell even thought it's unhealthy for you.I like to be in the bus with the new bus smell too,but I can't be in it too long,because I started to feellight headed and nausea.

TransitGuy Posted July 23, 2008 Share #18 Posted July 23, 2008 Wow thats a nice looking bus. Would have been better if they kept the rear stripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo M 201 Posted July 23, 2008 Share #19 Posted July 23, 2008 Ok,I will understand that.Everybody like new bus/car smell even thought it's unhealthy for you.I like to be in the bus with the new bus smell too,but I can't be in it too long,because I started to feellight headed and nausea. Yeah, like the fabric on the artics for +SBS+ when they first put them on, especially with 5739 at the roadeo this year! Wow thats a nice looking bus. Would have been better if they kept the rear stripe.Yeah, but how would you put the blue stripe on the back? The new back doesn't really allow for it unless the stripe goes along getting thinner and thinner to go around the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7LineFan Posted July 23, 2008 Share #20 Posted July 23, 2008 Yeah, but how would you put the blue stripe on the back? The new back doesn't really allow for it unless the stripe goes along getting thinner and thinner to go around the back. Just extend the blue stripe. Doesn't matter if it has to wrap around the rear lights. They could do it. Now will they? Probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo M 201 Posted July 23, 2008 Share #21 Posted July 23, 2008 Just extend the blue stripe. Doesn't matter if it has to wrap around the rear lights. They could do it. Now will they? Probably not. And if they did, it would kill the rear look of the bus since the way MCI designed the new rear that doesn't allow for such stripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
