Double K,
Welcome to the forum, and I can assure you that you will get your money's worth. Most of us bought something we knew we didn't have to have, but seemingly couldn't live without regardless of the year or cost. Don't hesitate to ask specific questions about any bus you are thinking about purchasing. Also look under the Articles section at the top of the screen and check out the Pre Purchase check list. You don't have to check everything on it, but it will give you a good idea of what you need to be looking for.
