As China's economy continues to be on the upswing and those "communists" allow the people to earn better incomes, we will probably see more of a variety of vehicles there. We can thank WalMart for the bus being there!

Just what we need is another forum member that puts a comma after every other word. I find his posts incredibly annoying, overworded, and overthought. They border on unreadable.

But please, honestly, does nobody in the world know the difference between your and you're? Does anyone realize that just because a word ends in "s" that it doesn't need an apostrophe?

It looks like a double sliding door model. That makes it interesting to me.

Seems the little punks in China like to steel chrome nose emblems just like here in America...

Guess there are Beastie Boys fans there, too...

Ahh that felt good didn’t it? Made me feel good just reading it! Much like the rants of yore

Just goes to show that they may take our rants and raves… but the dream lives on people!

Agreed. The combo of:

Hong Kong destination, double slider (with double flipper seat), side step, a/c, type 4 motor and double passenger seat on a walk through

is indeed interesting. Rare in fact. Someone show me another? Someone, somewhere, is in the corner spankin' it to this bus.

Hmmm... didn't notice that. I guess it is semi-interesting, Jared.

This thread, however, sucks.

Weird to see a 76 without a glove box door latch and no EGR or CAT lights on the cluster........

No "B" Brake light on the dash either. I guess they don't care if the fluid is low.

"506: With brake servo and dual circuit brake warning light (LHD)"
