Yes, that's an avocado green awning on top of orange and black brush paint.  Thankfully the new bus has no paint!

Our bus is so ugly, when we pulled up at Taco Bell everyone there headed for the border!

Our Bus is so Ugly, "Pimp My Ride" said it was better off working the street corner at the Landfill

Our bus is so ugly, our cats try to bury it.

Our Bus is so ugly, Raid wanted to use it for a Roach Motel, but the Roaches went to Motel MC9 instead.

Our Bus is so Ugly, when we auditioned it for the movie "Speed", the Overpass fell two hours before our appointment.

Now that's Ugg - a - Lee

luvrbus....nobody has an Eagle 25 because they have not produced a complete on yet.......as for hardworking family making american product.......yet to bee seen

many years no product more than 12 months following their public statemtn of a rollout date

At least Sam Walker had some product out there.......ripped some people off but he had the capability and some product.

There is more to the "American Dream" than owning a business, you must produce a marketable product.  Personally I have always liked Eagles and considered buying one. The 25 is one ugly bus!  Not to mention the state of production which has been discussed in other threads.

What do I know....  I own a Fishbowl which many consider to be one of the uglys!

buddydawg,

although the Fishbowl is now beautycontest winner, I don't think the folks at the GM Design studio had that in mind....but rather Purpose built functionality.

thats why they made those things for 30 some years basically unchanged......them they were made for a bit longer with some evamping as the MCI Classic

Don't know about the ugliest (mines pretty close), but my vote for best looking is the guy with the 45 ft red scenicruiser. You know the one. I don't recall his name. Didn't get to meet him or see the bus up close, unfortunately, but it's by far the most awesome looking bus I've ever seen.




Here's a pic of Pat McNeil's Scenicruiser for y'all to drool over!  Taken at Bussin' 2004 in Arcadia.
