It must be a busnut trait.  I have a collection of b&w photographs I have taken.  Mostly old barns, trucks, trees etc...
I'll have to dig'em up and share a few.   My busnut disease has progressed to the point that I want to buy every old bus I encounter.

If you're gonna gave a two-bus fleet, those would be the two to have.  Don't park 'em too close, though.  That Eagle cancer could jump species.

Who is Arlo Guthrie, and why would he need two buses?

Guess it's off to Google again!!!

It so he could get to Alice's Restaurant and then get picked up for various criminal activities and then be turned down when he was drafted into the military because he wanted to kill, Kill, Kill, KILL!
But you can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant!
Just walk right in, it's around the back,

Hey Dallas, Don't forget:

They was takin' plaster tire tracks, footprints, dog-smellin' prints and they took twenty-seven 8 x 10 colored glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explainin' what each one was, to be used as evidence against us. Took pictures of the approach, the getaway, the northwest corner, the southwest corner . . .
and that's not to mention the aerial photography!

As I remember it, Mr Guthrie's  crime involved a bus.
