Anyone have an opinion on buying a coach from Mike Kadletz for IFTA/IRP service?

Why so many negative things about him? He seemed all right when I met him and took the unit for a drive.

Maybe there's so many negative reports out there because they just want him to look bad or fake opinions. Take it for what it is worth to you.

You should probably listen to Gary. After all, he bought the magazine and this message board from Mike.

With all of that info on him, don't worry. Probably fake news ;D :D ;D

I take this to say you have been warned.

How is he going to get slippery on me? What if I just want to buy the coach, pay him, drive it home?

Or do things start getting complicated when deposits and paint work are involved?

Don't believe everything he tells you about a bus he may have for sale and his warranty stops at the end of his driveway. And his driveway is pretty short.  ;)

  Yes, I will second that.   Remember, he is a salesman.

Open the back doors to make sure there is still an engine in there, Check tires date code and see if they're the same ones you looked at originally . Especially if he speaks Russian to you, Just saying :o ::)

He is selling buses on eBay under USBUS and has 100%
good feedback, but he has ripped off a lot of people off in the past.  I don't understand how he is selling seated buses in CA with non-compliant 2stroke Detroit Diesels.

Swadian, aren’t you the same guy involved in a go fund me to start a charter service? Looking for bus inspections a few places around the country and places to park coaches? Did you guys get the charter service going? If the guys are warning you about Mike, do indeed listen to them especially if you are thinking of using said coach in a money making charter service.
