Yes. Class "B" CDL with Air Brakes and Passenger endorsements. Even if you do not work for anyone.

I lived on Schubert for 5 years, then a year and a half ago I moved over to Poe Street (southeast about 7 blocks)

I live on Schubert now, two houses from Wilder. You didn't move because of me, I hope.

I lived in the culdesack at the far west end. Yep, I saw you one day, and said, "I am out of here, before he takes my picture and puts it on his website."

I lived in split level on the north side, that had all the Christmas lights every year.

I have always wanted to get a bus for tailgating. When does CyRide sells the buses? Do they have an auction on a certain day? Do they put them on eBay?

YEAH 100th POST!

Since when are these things going 70? Back in my day(just got the Gillig Phantoms for you fellow drivers) we would see how fast we could get em
going between duff and elwood on 30. Never saw anything faster than 60 myself.

Also, if you are interested in buying a bus, keep an ear/eye out for small school districts. I've heard of buses that run going for dirt cheap. Like others have said though, insurance and repairs can be costly.

I'd like to buy a bus of my own one day too and use it for tailgating.

My brother-in-law bought an old school bus and runs it as a shuttle service for weddings and bachelor parties. He is booked pretty much every weekend and makes a killing on it. He runs is out of Breada Iowa (over by carroll)

Okay, I live east of Wilder two houses on the north side. Ya know, about a year and a half ago one of the guys west of wilder invited us to a big block party on that culdesack. It was a huge bash!! He never did say what they were celebrating but now I can kind of put it all together!!
