I'm talking to a guy about a bus to replace our van. The bus sounds like
a decent deal, but I'd really like to have someone I can trust take a
look at it and possibly help with the transaction. Still gotta figure
out how to get it back to Tulsa too.
My email is valid.
Thanks,
Les

Roach will drive it for you. Don't offer to pay for gas or anything
because you'll insult him.
You're welcome.

Actually, I'm 350 miles from the Burg. Sunshine is in the Burg, TL
is closer than I am.

At around 200 miles out I'm closer than Roach, but as I'm no wrench at
all my input might be worse than having no input at all wrt the bus.
While I can't offer much by way of physically giving the bus the once
over, I did recently replace my 95 Accord with a 96 Civic. For peace of
mind if nothing else, I dropped twenty bucks on a report from
http://www.carfax.com/ so perhaps that would be a step?
