I would gather that it is ready for production if someone gave them an order for it. When was the last time they bid on a new bus contract? Have they bid an Extreme yet?It's not that hard to build a Gen 1 RTS low floor. You simply move the front door behind the front wheel, create a full width driver compartment, mount the farebox between the front wheels (and place the driver compartment door there), and drop the floor 10 inches or so. The driver can step up to the compartment. The dropped floor would end after the rear doors, where steps could be placed. The bus could be offered in 40' and 45' lengths. One could argue that an LFS is a squared off RTS. Squaring the lower portion off would make things easier. |
