Many thanks to Loc "Lake McMuffin" McNew and Lawn Jockey Boy Gordon Deen for all the help getting this deal done. Gordo sniffed this coach out a few months back, but the owner and I couldn't get connected on it. And I really didn't want another coach with red accents and a light interior.
So here is the real lesson - never believe what you see in the pictures on the Internet. We go look at the coach after Christmas and guess what? The exterior isn't red and the interior isn't white.
And the new bus looks at home in the hanger amongst the plethora of Pantone 166 stuff.
First trip should be spring break with the annual POG Oysterfest bolted onto the end of the trip.
And it was hard to leave the '01 coach in Austin. We drove it over 50K miles in the 3+ years we owned it and it got us easily to the east coast three times and the west coast twice with a side trip to the Canadian border and two runs to OSH. A great bus that was a pleasure to own. I can only hope this one is as good.
