Slightly OT: 15 Passenger Van

What could possibly go wrong ?

What year engine and transmission ?
Not worried about a thing (knock on wood)

2004. 70k miles. Only "serious" issue was an exhaust manifold but our mechanic does big stuff all of the time and a manifold is a good "serious" issue to have. I spent about 2.5k less than I thought my minimum would be going into it. Very happy with how everything turned out and beyond excited for tomorrow. Have never seen my group of friends this collectively excited.

My best friend's girlfriend is a wizard with the paint brush. This just came out incredible.
 
That is awesome. These “retired” vehicles can actually be purchased cheaply. If you get them large transportation agencies, they’ll been very well maintained.

That Otto logo is incredible!

Is there a reason you kept the “Oriskany” verbiage?

I’d brand it the “Otto Express” or something….but you’d probably get a visit from the SU marketing team.

We aren't in a rush to take the lettering off because we figured it's one less reason to get pulled over.. lol. Makes sense if you don't think about it too much.

We are naming her the "Wax Wagon" but just ran out of time last night. Was going to go with the Kyle McFord but have to ride with a returner.

Since we won does that mean you will be hanging onto the Hospicemobile? You implied otherwise in the game thread.
 
I have turned my group of 3 season tickets to 7 the last two years and now up to 15 or 16 this season. I am looking for a 15 passenger van to use as a booze bus from Utica area to each home game and maybe @BC.

Does anyone here have or know anybody that has a used one for sale? Have been scouring auctions and Facebook marketplace for weeks but hard to find something for a reasonable price that will pass inspection. If anybody has or knows someone who would rent one that'd be cool, too. We have one rented for the first game right now but really hoping to buy one before week one.

Really appreciate the help and really frigging excited to have spread the good word of Cuse football to so many of my friends.
How did things go with your group bus?

Could not have went better. Really, really excited for this Saturday. Hopefully getting one more set of seats before then and decorating the interior a little bit. But it runs great and has plenty of room for everything and everybody we need.
 
Where do you park? I would think a bus would be like an RV and not allowed anywhere but skytop if you park at SU lots?

Who knows they apparently allow it if it fits in a space
