    Default Hmmmm....is this right?

    Checked out eBay and saw http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2007-...t_39322wt_1026.

    This looks like quite the bargain. What would be a more experienced bus driver's concerns?

    Because Legendary and others are out of business their prices usually reflect this kind of low market price.Go scan RV ONLINE and you will see the orphan coaches are priced accordingly.That does not mean that they are not a good value,just that the marketplace does not hold them in high regard.My concern would be repairs of the Legendary systems.

    Florida Luxury Coach recently sold an '07 south of 465K. The '07's are actually built on '05 chassis. The '05 was the early version of the S60 EGR technology. You really need to see a Legendary in person to assess its value.

    Young grasshopper, go over to this site and read everything you can on the Detroit Diesel Series 60 and it's recent emissions control equipment.

    When the Legendary inventory was being liquidated several years back at a time when a new conversion was costing north of $1,000,000 some were sold in the $625,000 range. This was before the market went in the dumper.

    Now take that 2009 shell and depreciate it back to 2005 and adjust for the modern additions and upgrades that took place over the ensuing 4 year.

    Interesting ebay listing - it isn't an auction and there isn't a "make offer" option. Guess its just PR
