Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
I like the concept

Having seen the QA program I would not purchase anything from China that was designed there.

Yeah.... what happens when it comes up on some douche-bag in a work van with a ladder rack that sits a foot taller than the bus?? Or the douche-bag in the van figures he can drive right under it??
And...did I actually see them letting passengers out in the middle of the highway in a traffic jam? That seems like a safe solution to at least the population problem......

No thanks....having a moving "bus" running over the top of me is just a bit too much....keep that crap over thar in China...we got enough problems on the roads as it is....Thumbs Down
