I failed to make my point clearly so my flub. I had forgotten about MONACO being part of the IC empire now but I saw an article on BUSRIDE that told of IC getting into the over the road bus business in 2010. This was in October of '08 so they may have thought twice since then. So the bus I saw may well have been a MONACO body adapted for seated coach work.
Instead of looking for a specific brand, I wiuld be more interested in overall condition. All brands have strong points and weak points. Learn the typical weak points of any model and pay particular attention to those area when inspecting the coach. Jack
I agree with Jack. There are great things about any coach company, and not so great things as well. However, when it's all said and done mechanical, structural, and electrical condition are more impotent than the shape of your windscreen. I own an MCI, but would be proud to own ANY make of bus if she sounds good!

Hey Bryce,I'd have a schnapps aboard your bus any time!
