Wow what great posts! Well I took my first test drive of a schoolie!
88 gmc 8.2 diesel, allison auto, 35 caps. and AIR BRAKES!
First of all the red light thing, (says piolet) and alarm is rear
door open (illinois thing), after I latched it the red light and
buzzer went away. What can I say lets list the cons of my trip.
Cons,
Very bumpy ride!
Diesel smell
slow accelration
top speed 55-65 mph
had to yell to talk to wife and son.
loose seats rattling.
Pros,
Lots of room
Safe
Rugged
fun to drive
good mirrors good visability
cheap
conclusion my wife hates the bumpy ride!
I want more speed!
Now if I can overcome these great , ethier mentally or phisically
other wise, I must in all logic consider HWY bus or motor home or ?.
If your going to buy DRIVE IT. I'am still thinking schoolie but atlas
some of my dream has been diluted.
Get a coach. my gillig pusher is quiet ,rides like an old caddy and is even easier to manuver with.out that snout up front. gilligs or crowns first choice. blue birds a distant third. Ron
