Mississauga Transit/MiWay (15 buses)Des Moines (11 buses) University of Georgia (12 buses) King County's 2012 order is only for 30 buses. I don't have anything recent to go off so its possible there might be a few orders that were awarded recently before the announcement. |

The parts business will stay in operation because aftermarket parts make money. If Daimler isn't interested in running it themselves, they will find a ready buyer. When Flxible went under, MCI bought the parts business from them for all those Metros still in service back then. |

King County's 2012 order is only for 30 buses.How does that fit in to the current delivery? I've read from several Internet sources that King County is getting up to #7306 - is the 30 buses part of that? I did see #7174 on the Thruway headed west a few weeks ago. |
