Do I see a patch above the rear wheels? Typically a weak spot in the scenecruiser. Also your milage may vary?

Hey, come on there. He said he got "nearly 10 miles per gallon". 6 is nearly 10 in some circles.
Nice interior, but wow...that's a lotta bus.

400 horsepower AND 10 MPG out of an 8V71 in an automatic transmission, 10 wheel bus?
I like Jim's comment about "6 is nearly 10 in some circles."
That also looks like a construction type generator NOT designed for compartment mounting to me?
A 6 speed auto, wasn't that an HT70? Hasn't been made in at least 25 years...
Now we know why it doesn't sell!

A B500 is also a 6 speed.
I am with you on being skeptical of the power to economy ratio but it is a nice old coach

I remember riding in one of them when I was a little boy and I couldn't believe that a fellow that drove it wasn't much bigger than me. I was expecting to see someone like 6'5" 250 lbs and if the driver was 25 yrs old and weighed 125lbs he was lucky. But He knew how to handle the rig according to my Dad.

One AC for a coach that size? I can see why it is no longer in Florida.

It may be an optical delusion, but it looks like you will need to stoop while in the front section.
