• I'm going to pull bus S10701 (2007 US Bus Chevy) out of service Friday morning, I want to take a look at the tie rods. I was walking through the yard and noticed that the driver side front tire is worn down pretty bad on the inner portion.
  
  Just some info: A worn tie rod can cause wandering, erratic steering and also major tire wear.
  
  As of now, bus S19801 (1998 Blue-Bird GMC) will be covering for this bus because it is the only special ed spare.

• Looks like we have a busted tie rod. I placed the order and it should be in Monday sometime. S10701 is out until further notice.

• I would think it would pass. As I haven't even driven it yet. Gotta ask BOSS if I can take her for a spin... to get a feel for it...

• Has anyone driven this bus yet? And also, on the roster, it says that it does not have black window frames. Correct me if i'm wrong, but im pretty sure that all US Bus/Transtech models have black window frames

• It probably comes standard, but you can spec it without them.
