    Details on Blue Bird Vision Propane Buses

    Blue Bird began in 1927 with the goal of building the world’s finest school bus, and that vision still drives the company today. The fifth-generation Vision Propane delivers on this goal. It provides a solution for transporting children to school, sporting events, field trips and summer camps. Here are a few details about this bus:

    • It holds up to 83 passengers, giving plenty of room to carry students on your routes.
    • The bus uses a Ford 7.3-liter engine with the ROUSH CleanTech Propane Fuel System.
    • The transmission is a Ford 6R140 6-speed automatic, the global bus standard.
    • Different models hold from 47 to 93 gallons of fuel to keep the bus running even on long drives.
    • Vision Propane buses use 4-wheel hydraulic disc brakes with a 4-channel antilock brake system.
    • A gross vehicle weight rating of 33,000 pounds means the bus can hold heavy loads.
    • The interior is over 6 feet tall, creating plenty of headroom for passengers of any age.

    Advantages of Blue Bird Vision Propane Models

    Vision Propane buses provide various benefits that make them a good choice for schools and other organizations. They run on a cost-effective fuel that offers excellent efficiency. Many school districts save thousands per year by switching to propane buses. Propane also results in safer, cleaner operations. 

    A simplified emission system and durable engine and transmission keep these buses running better for longer. Vision Propane owners can save on the maintenance of parts and fluids for cost-effective long-term ownership.

    This bus provides advantages in terms of quality as well, with an ergonomic driver’s cockpit, high-performance window seals and larger bumpers than any other bus in the industry. Blue Bird buses also prioritize safety with built-in features like a custom, one-piece roof bow system.

    Hydraulic pump shop is unmatched. I made the mistake of going somewhere else before bringing my pump here. These guys were more than helpful and friendly. Went out of their way to help me find a solution for my problem even when it didn’t benefit them. This is how businesses should be run. I won’t go anywhere else.

    Too bad Poole Cat Field Service is better at invoicing than actually getting my machines moving.

    A prompt and courteous technician arrived, and correctly diagnosed two problems with my mini Ex. Thank you. I corrected those problems, but machine still did not work.

    He diagnosed a fuel problem as a clogged filter, rather than a bad fuel pump which I managed to diagnose. I also figured out, via help on the internet, that the fuel shut-off solenoid was bad.

    Machine runs fine now. So my advice is to check the internet, before letting Poole charge you $870 for a two hour field visit. And you can find a perfectly fine aftermarket fuel pump for $20 rather than the $250 that Poole charges... and it arrives faster,

    Need to teach a tech how to drive a service truck. Around 2:48 on highway 40 east, the truck pictured (plate ending in 8236) flew across 3 lanes of traffic to meet the Cleveland rd exit. Almost hit a semi and caused me to swerve with my children in the car. Glad making the exit was more important than children’s lives.
