I think they're interesting, but I don't have any models of buses. Planes and cars are enough!

I would love to have an old classic bus to drive around as a party wagon.

When I was a kid growing up in Seattle and then the SF Bay Area, I used to want to drive a city transit bus as a career ... then I got interested in airliners and then wanted to be an airline pilot ... I've since 'grown up' and now I drive a Nissan Quest with a bunch of family members in it ... does that qualify?

The Nissan Quest reminds me of the A380 equivalent of a minivan

My favorite is the Crown School Buses. Anyone know where I can get one in die-cast?

Probably right there ... it's kinda bloated but I gotta give it some props in the styling department ... has a bit more 'character' than some of the standard issues, like the Toyota Sienna and the Honda Odyssey, although it doesn't handle as well.

Sometimes I "feel" like I'm driving a bus though ...

Only AIR Buses, I know, horrible, but someone had to say it, and I was going to be the first.

To make this post worth it, those are some awesome looking buses, I wish my school bus and the city buses were that cool.
