*Who can own a bus?
Anyone can own a bus.  This includes you.  People, churches, schools, day cares, sports fans, and anyone else that wants or needs a bus can own one.  There is no required use for a bus either.  You can use it for any purpose you wish.

*Do I need a CDL to drive a bus?
You need a CDL to drive a bus that is rated for over 15 passengers including the driver in most states.  This is why there are so many 15 passenger vans used.  You do not need a CDL to drive a bus that is titled as a motor home, if the GVW is below 26,001lbs.

*Can I get Air Conditioning on a bus?
You can get A/C on a bus.  Most transit type buses have a/c built in.  Most school buses do not have a/c installed.  Of course there are exceptions to these statements.  A/C can be installed into any bus.  We can have a single A/C system installed for around $8,000.  A double system cost around $15,000.  If you are not in the Tampa Bay area, we recommend getting A/C installed at your location.  This way you have a good local warranty in case something needs fixed.

*Why would someone want a bus?
Buses have 100's of uses.  Many people want a bus to transport people.  They are churches, schools, day care centers, pre-schools, or employers.  There are also several other reasons people buy buses.  Conversions are very popular.  Either as a motorhome, or a full time home.  Nascar buses, or tail gating buses are another very popular use for buses.  You have probably seen one of these buses at an event you have attended.  People moving long distances can save a fortune buying a bus.  Instead of money to U-Haul, you can buy a bus and move all of your stuff in it.  A wheel chair lift comes in handy for this use.  Then when you get moved to your new house, simply sell the bus and get your money back.  There are tons of other ideas people have for buses, what is yours?  We can help make your dream a reality.

*How do you convert a bus?
There are many resources out there, but the best place to start is School Bus conversion nuts on yahoo groups  This is the best group we are aware of out on the web.

*Do you export buses?
We can get your bus into the port.  This saves you from paying sales tax, and it's one less thing to worry about!  The charge to take a bus through the port is $300 on top of the delivery charge.
