I was just reading a post by a fellow trying to move an old bus which has been sitting for some time and has flat tires and questionable engine. He's asking for advice on how to remove the tires or get them aired up, etc.Not to single this one guy out, but it seems to me that if people would take the time to set up their bb profile so it includes where they are located, there might actually be other bus nuts in the area who would be willing to come help, and who probably have the tools (jacks, wrenches, electrical, knowledge, etc) to help ease the burden. If this fellow was located within a reasonable distance from me, I'd gladly bring my air wrench, generator, compressor, tire bars, hoses, tow rope, etc, and help him change his tires. Might even help him see if the old girl is ready to run again. It would be worth the time to see the old bus, and make a new busnut friend.Just a suggestion. craig
Yeah, I looked at the map the other day. It's coming along nicely, but the problem is that it's not tied to the profile. It's a separate entity alltogether that each individual must go register for. So when someone posts that he's having such and such a problem, I can't just click on his name and find out where he's located. And trying to locate him on the national (international?) map is not going to be very effective when we get all 666 members (wow, compare that number with today's date That's just freakin wierd!!) registered on the map. It'll look like Alquburque skys during the balloon fest.
I started to think I made a mistake joining here because I don’t own a half-million buck Orion, GMC, or MCI.
I have my heart on getting a Saurer Komet!
