I saw a coach today: Prevost, painted dark maroon with deep-tint on what looked like stock coach windows. Wheels were chrome, as were bumpers (looked cool). The route sign was gone, & it had "Private Coach" in Old English-style lettering over the windshields. Exhaust was out the top, left rear corner. There was a bicycle rack (empty) on the front, & it was flat-towing a candy-apple red Chevette 5-door. The coach & Subaru both had Texas plates.

There was a beautiful mural of a chestnut-colored horse leaping a fence at full stride painted on the back.

I saw it on I-295 North, in Johnston, RI.

If this was a Bus Nut, your engine smokes slightly at cruising speed (heavily at WOT), & your Chevette's left-rear wheel looks like it's bent. Your left taillight is also out.

For future reference, I suggest a running start as fast as possible for the hill just past exit 3. :) Getting into the left lane just after exit 3B is advisable: cars merging onto the highway have very little acceleration room, & frequently cut off right-lane drivers.

If you remember the guy in the gray F-350 towing an empty car trailer who waved as he passed you on that hill, that was me. :)

Jonny,

Most guys on the road in their busses are not on the Net very often. Some trouble themselves to find net connections or have other methods (cell phone, satellite etc.), but my experience has been people on the road are not on the Net and people on the Net are not on the road. (in general)

Scott
