Transit vehicles in Nebraska feature a variety of engines, including diesel, gas, and even some CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) options. Common engine brands include Cummins, Caterpillar, Detroit Diesel, and Ford. The engine type and size often depend on the vehicle's size and intended use.

The passenger capacity is typically listed in the vehicle description. It can range from small shuttle buses with 10-15 seats to large transit buses accommodating up to 88 passengers. Some vehicles also feature wheelchair lifts or spaces, which may affect the total passenger count.

Most vehicles come with a Nebraska title. The listing will specify if there are any title issues or delays. Some government entities or dealers may have specific procedures for title transfer. Always review the title information in the listing and contact the seller if you have questions about registration or title transfer.

When buying a school bus, consider its intended use. If you plan to use it as a private vehicle, be aware of regulations regarding school bus conversion and removal of school bus-specific features. Also, pay attention to the bus's size, as larger models may require a special driver's license to operate.

• Thoroughly review vehicle specifications, including mileage, engine type, and passenger capacity, to ensure it meets your specific transit needs.
• Inspect maintenance records and service history, particularly for high-mileage vehicles like the Gillig transit buses with over 500,000 miles.
• Consider the vehicle's fuel type (diesel, gas, or CNG) and its impact on your operational costs and environmental goals.
• Evaluate the condition of critical components such as wheelchair lifts, air conditioning, and specialized equipment for ADA compliance.
• Factor in the vehicle's age and brand reputation; popular makes like Blue Bird, Thomas Built, and Ford have proven track records in the transit industry.

Remember to account for potential refurbishment costs and parts availability, especially for older models like the 1991 Thomas Built school bus.

• Provide comprehensive details on vehicle specifications, including make, model, year, mileage, and passenger capacity to attract serious buyers.
• Highlight unique features such as wheelchair accessibility, air suspension, or low-emission engines to differentiate your listing.
• Be transparent about the vehicle's condition, including any warning indicators, mechanical issues, or recent repairs.
• Offer maintenance records and service history to build buyer confidence, especially for high-mileage vehicles.
• Clean and prepare the vehicle for photographs, ensuring clear images of both exterior and interior conditions.

Consider having your transit vehicle inspected by a certified mechanic before listing to address any potential issues and provide an unbiased condition report to prospective buyers.
