Lovely

That is a very good looking truck! I like the way the sides tuck into the cab. What is the purpose of the large scoop like shape above the cab?

Hi Alan,
I came up with this as a solution for forward vision without having the sun blaring in. it sort of looks weird, but purposeful

Hi John, Hope all is well on the Sunny Coast. Berrick wanted the big rear storage as we do a lot of transfers with luggage. It wasted by AAPT smart coach in WA, they were keen to do aluminium.
Apologise to Paul for me, I did try to get the composite over the line, but AAPT offered the large boot space.

Oh, original snorkel 😄
He went with the NPS after endless issues with the 84. I don't know if we got a lemon, but the 84 has been really troublesome 😡

Hey, no worries mate. We're doing pretty well with the new mod buses anyway. Still haven't got any on the beach yet but some going to remote aboriginal communities and and we're also getting a batch ready for export before Christmas.

I thought that looked like an AAPT build...actually just noticed the sign on the wall now that I'm not looking at the screen on my phone!!!

Yeah we take a row of seats out now if you want a large boot. Standard boot is about the same as the old Fraser day tour buses.

Anyway, congrats to Berrick. Could be good timing with the Aussie dollar falling, current Global tourism scene and general political unrest.....I think the Australian tour industry could pick right up over the next year or two.

Regards John.
