#MrBusinessMan has a question...
Why would a church, university, retirement community, youth group, airport shuttle service, or corporate campus spend $150,000 on a new shuttle bus...
When this thing exists?
2014 Thomas Built 3500 170" EXT Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Shuttle
1 Owner Since New
Only 7,059 Original Miles
Diesel
14 Passenger Plus Driver
And probably one of the lowest-mile examples left anywhere.
THE STORY:
This isn't some worn-out airport shuttle with 300,000 miles and three different owners.
This is a Florida-owned, one-owner unit from new.
Only 7,059 original miles.
That's not a typo.
Seven thousand miles.
Most shuttle buses see that in a couple months.
This one has seen it in over a decade.
THE HEART OF THE MACHINE:
3.0L BlueTEC Mercedes-Benz Diesel
188 Horsepower
325 LB-FT Torque
7-Speed Automatic
Rear Wheel Drive
The powerplant that made the Sprinter famous.
Reliable.
Efficient.
Built to run.
And just getting broken in.
THE #MrBusinessMan TAKE:
This thing cost an absolute fortune when it was built.
A FORTUNE.
Custom Thomas conversion.
Mercedes chassis.
Passenger seating.
Rear air conditioning.
Commercial-grade setup.
Today?
You get all the expensive stuff without writing the expensive check.
That's called smart shopping.
THE GOOD STUFF:
14 Passenger Seating Plus Driver
Premium Black Leather Seating
Rear Roof Air Conditioning
School Bus Style Swing Open Entry Door
Bluetooth
Chrome Simulators
Extended 170" Wheelbase
Commercial Thomas Built Conversion
Florida Vehicle Since New
No Rust
Perfect for:
Universities
Churches
Hotels
Retirement Communities
Youth Programs
Sports Teams
Corporate Campuses
Airport Transportation
THE CONDITION:
Only 7,059 Original Miles
Florida Owned Since New
No Rust
Fresh Pennsylvania Inspection
Fresh Oil Change
Runs and Drives Excellent
The only real cosmetic issue is some Florida sun fade on the paint.
A whole lot easier to fix than rust.
LET'S ADDRESS THE CARFAX.
Because somebody is going to ask.
Carfax shows "Structural Damage."
Why?
Because Manheim announced the factory Thomas door conversion cutout as structural damage.
That's it.
The body was professionally modified by Thomas Built from new as part of the shuttle conversion process.
In other words...
Auction nonsense.
Not collision damage.
Not crash damage.
Not abuse.
Just paperwork stupidity.
REAL TALK:
Finding a 10-year-old shuttle bus isn't difficult.
Finding a 10-year-old shuttle bus with 7,000 miles is nearly impossible.
This thing has less mileage than most people put on a pickup truck in a single year.
Priced to Sell.
Save Thousands Compared to New.
And when it's gone, good luck finding another one with these miles.
Call Chuck or Dave before a church board, university fleet manager, or campground owner beats you to it.
