Dude when I saw them, I was really disappointed. I thought they were going to look better than that. I have the 15 EX-L trim level. I love that body style. Just wish my touch screen was bigger.
I also drive a 2017 Thomas C2 and I love the exhaust break on it !! The retarders are awesome !! I love how you can take your foot off the break and it has a big low growl when it starts to slow down on its own !! Some of my co workers don't like them because they say their cheaply made !!
Those look like the low back seats! I wonder what the benefit of the exhaust through the bumper is, I like that spec though! After about 80-100k the DPF doesn't do much and they all start smoking anyway. I have seen some Visions start to infiltrate NC a bit, not good!
I am much more of a Thomas fan than a Blue Bird fan. But that being said I really like the drivers compartment of the Vision, tight but well laid out. I think the NC C2s overall look better than the BBV, and definitely convenient with there production in state. And I think most of us agree that anything is better than an IC.
My Bus Ranking (Top ) 1.Thomas (of course) 2. IC (first type I ever rode, sort of reliable I guess?) 3. Lion (though I have yet to see one) BlueBird on the other hand... I don't like them too much, too compact in my opinion, also don't like the way the Vision hood is, it just looks weird to me idk. But yeah, I lime the BBRE's better though.
BusMaster99: I think it started to confuse some drivers! But the real question is why are they phasing out some push and pull parking brake on some of the buses, I know Bluebird is starting to do it...

Marquis Hunt I drive the 100th Anniversary model and the turn radius is terrible. My mechanic has reached out to Thomas but nothing has changed yet. If it wasn’t for the driver air, I would take the 07 model.
06badboi the one I ride on to school is the 100th anniversary. It leaks in the back of the bus where the back door is when it rains. The ac is not that but it could be the new bus driver we got. He tries to kill us with the heat when it is 50 degrees outside but the heat is not on when it is below 30 degrees. Our old bus driver got another bus driving job in the school district that makes more money and she got a brand new bus this past school year. It beats our 04 old bus we had before the 2016-2017 school year. The ac and heat didn’t work on the old bus.
They need to get rid of the light test and just start back putting the exterior light monitors on the NC buses nobody even uses the light test button 😂🤷🏽♀️
We got some of those in Chapel Hill NC this year too. I love the LED interior
I just made a video about our 42, since it was in an accident, and this is the first video in my recommendations! lol
Well thanks for visiting my page. I’ll check out your video as well.
Glad to have you back Chad.... Btw nice Honda 👍🏽👍🏽
haha thanks Jay. I'm trying to get some vids in here and there. Hope all is well!
cdcruizer05 Yeah everything is going well. No complaints here. Btw I have a Honda Accord as well lol.
No way? That's pretty cool, I don't like the 18s that are coming out. You?

Is this just me or do the Thomas 3800's with the dt466e make an outstanding bus why did they stop making em

crazyjdkid I have yet to get my hands on a new vision. I wonder how well they'll do for us.

It's been a while since I drove a C2
I drive a NC 100 anniversary C2 I love it and mine has the 6 foot stop arm
lucky because of the stop arm
Yeah, I remember a few districts trying this...
I drive the NC 100 Anniversary C2 as well and like you, I love mine
GLO Freshh it's ok just attracts more attention
I've riden on the Travel Kuz 100th Anniversary Bus as well.
Any reason they went back to using the "BRAKE" light for the parking brake instead of "PARK?"
BusMaster99: I think it started to confuse some drivers!
But the real question is why are they phasing out some push and pull parking brake on some of the buses, I know Bluebird is starting to do it...
Air or hydraulic brakes?
Eric Cartman Buses with hydraulic brakes are more efficient also to cater to bus drivers who don't know how to drive buses with air brakes
BusMaster99 all NC school buses have air brakes
Because of the poop rule.
ha, we also got an '18 C2 numbered 42
I love safe liner c2
Saf t liner is spelled wrong

Most of the C2’s and visions have Pedal parking brakes...
Eric Cartman that how they make their own buses
GIVE SOME TO "OCONEE SC" we need one ones bad
When did that bus come
Sam Overby last school year
Sam Overby I originally shot video in May of this year
cdcruizer05 we got a c2 in March but i don't know what year in nc
Wow the bus has LAD lights but it looks very cool the school bus is the long existing heavy vecichle 1887-2018
I don't know. Is it a joke? It sounds like there's a punch line coming.
Did any of them come to Rockingham county nc
Sam Overby yes, Rockingham got 10
cdcruizer05 was one 177
Sam Overby yes you guys received buses 171 thru 181.
Sam Overby some of the new bus comes out with the 2018 Thomas c2 school buses
Ok thanks i ride 177 and wasn't sure
How’s the turn radius?! Durham County’s is terrible! Went to make a left turn and had to back up. I was like I’m a way better driver than that

Because my District received more buses than that. But, that's ok. U can keep it. :)
My bus looks like that.
Dontae Jones they all look the same, smart ass. HAHAHAAHAHhahahahahahahahahahahahahHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
They need to get rid of the light test and just start back putting the exterior light monitors on the NC buses nobody even uses the light test button 😂🤷🏽♀️
Tashica King my light test button never worked.
They work like a charm here in Cumberland Co we just don’t use them
NC Spec don’t have Radio
GO Davie County!
That’s where I live
What engine is it
Sam Overby the shit spray
Delux
NC C2’s have the 6.7 Cummins
Donnelle Bivens does it go vroom vroom? Or does it go broom broom?
Fact NC schools activity buses go 55 mph not 45 like normal school buses
Jabion Bellamy yes that's correct😁
it is a 2018
Whitehouse isd Backup Camera
Disappointed no radio
R Ad yeah I guess they're too much a distraction
