    I'm sorry, we don't have school buses here, and DAF doesn't build buses any more. I think they don't even build bus chassis any more.

    my brother clean one of worst roads in country (that can take truck), his company have 700 of employers (drivers+machine operators+workers) he is one of 6 who clean this road

    for 30km of road he needs 4hours , he do this using 4x4 truck, 3axle trucks cant go there, in worst 10km he have 28 sharp 180 degrees serpentines, single lane, often have no fence so you hope there are trees there as there are lot of cliffs

    there are roads over there that only unimog can access 400 is little bit too big.

    I saw him last time week ago, he sleeps there
