- 2009 Thomas C2 taken for a test drive in the summer time. This was recorded back on 18/07/2019. So please excuse my nasty, sweaty self. It was scorching hot this summer, on that day it was about 95 with the head index reaching shy of 110. So yeah, kinda warm.
Yall have seen this bus plenty of times before, just look back and you can find it when it was new. 220 horse 6.7 Cummins mated to the Allison 2500. Air ride, door, seat, and brakes. Black tint and window frames and posts. Dual LED stop arms and strobbing LED warning lights. Nicely speced for some early C2s. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
2:24 Love that takeoff😊
It never gets old, does it
Never gets old
Allison transmission 2500 is better
I love listening to the axle sound at the back slowly going higher
The engine sounded like 2009 Thomas C2 with cummins 6.7L ISB and MBE900 together
Omg this older model c2 brings back so many memories. I haven’t ridden in one of these since elementary school back in in 2013
This brings back memories in 3rd grade when I used to ride the jewel’s school bus company to elementary school with the Thomas safe t liner c2
Pø
I remember I took MHRD Bus number 81 to Mount Olive in March 2023
Those seats have seen better days
i remembering riding a bus like this in pre school
Thanks for the ride. I appreciate it.
nice smooth ride I love it brings back memories of when i was in school
That bus had a cold start
I love Thomas C2
These my fav buses
These are my most favorite buses especially with a good axle sound and I hear one everyday
I love this sound
And why is that
@@pjswhatevertime9212 4:17 listen to that
@@Project_29 I mean I can’t lie that does sound pretty good
Me too
Does this one still have the issue with the Windshield wipers like it did back then or did they manage to fix it?
That starter sounds like it’s going bad
how fast can the bus go. Madison Co, MS school bus only get up to 55 miles per hour.
How many people can ride that 2009 freightliner Thomas c2 bus
In Illinois almost every school bus is a Thomas C2 or IC CE
finally a c2, but it's from the back of the bus! lol beggars can't be choosers
Nah the axle sound better from the back lol
@@yoblades I have a bunch of clips of C2’s from the back if you want to watch them
@@Project_29 rear axle sounds good on any bus in the back especially the quiet humming noise some have.
I like to ask you are doing a video about your ford school bus new update just asking
Nice 2009 Thomas C2
Can you do a Q&A?
Boy that startup was rough
Probably the fuel pump
Cummins ISB has a Rocky start so probably the summer engine ISB
2009 T H O M A S S A F T L I N E R C 2
But if you like speeding then that’s fine
What did this bad boy max out at?
What happened to that Cummins engine why did it take so long to crank? Usually those things don’t take long at all. They fire up 0:08
Even our brand new ones take a minute.
Video Dude 22 bad fuel pump
Charles Ashcraft Oh wow.
Video Dude 22 one of the buses I ride is a 2015 ic ce with maxforce dt
bus 68
Do you guys have a efx
I think they got 5 of them. #s 134-138
i wonder why all of the first gen c2’s got that axle whine sound. we got two first gens and the axles sound exactly the same.
Most school buses have some sort of axle hum because I’ve been on several. Even brand new ones they’ll have some sort of noise in the rear axle. Some don’t but many do.
@@charlesrodriguez7984yeah I know that all buses have some sort of axle hum, but something abt the first gen C2s has a louder hum that cuts off whenever the foot is taken for the throttle, as opposed to the hum on other buses being continuous and contingent on the speed of the bus only
C2 TIME!

4:22 What is that deap groaning sound that happens when you push the gas?
Thats the sound of the gears in the rear differential. It can usually be heard more when you sit in the back of the bus, above the rear wheels, as thats where the differential is located.
@@golfguy25some buses don’t have that noise but it’s the gear on the driveshaft that’s In contact with the drive gear on the differential that causes that sound.
@@golfguy25it’s because the teeth are more straight cut than car differentials and they’re larger too.

Go to 7:35 it sound so good
It would be nice to see how fast she was going!
75 is maxed out on this unit
@@9sb19 really?
Mine can do 80.
@@SpeedLimit8585 it could absolutely do 80/85 but they're governed down at 75
@@9sb19 I took the governor off of mine.
how many miles she have?
Bad kids no on my bus
0:08
Slow down a little bit
What a shitty startup 😂
ÿ.exe
Why did it take so long to start
Either bad fuel pump, bad starter/battery, or relay is going out or dirty filter
Chase Jones defiantly wasn’t the starter or battery it was cranking pretty strong for a good bit
@@TechOut probably fuel pump. Or just so hot, it did say nearly 100° in the description, our Cummins tend to do this sometimes but only up to 4 seconds at the most,
@@chasejones2654 if it was the battery it wouldnt be cranking that fast
@@taz89ful it was probably a bad battery or something its not like I know everything in the world
paa
Yy
Fix the engine
That is what I was going to say
My bus engine is the WORST
