Hey Guys! MrTurbodiesel here. Today I didn't post these bus ride videos recently. But I was on #S420 on 12/19/2024 & 12/20/2024 and it was exciting for me to get to ride one of Gilbert's newer buses for a whole year! #S420 is a new replacement bus for the next generation lineup replacement for #S320 (2000 International AmTran 3800 WCL T444E) since it's retired & now sold. These buses are faster than the other old conventional buses in the fleet w/210hp - (2002-2009).
