If I'm running a transport business, I will do the overall costs
carefully and look out for reviews, because I know a car with a
smaller engine may not be the best, whether in terms of reliability
or fuel efficiency or maintenance cost. Which is basically my point
in my last post.
Also how would you know for
sure which buses have higher maintenance costs especially when
these buses are still quite new and are likely to be tied to
maintenance contracts and info therein are likely to be
commercial-in-confidence. Oh, your depot friends, best apparent
source of information.
I drive bus,lorries,cranes and one of my so called depot friend
happen to be the senior tech graduate from Germany.Perhaps someday
we can arrange to meet and he can explain to you better?Cause i got
only depot friends,cant say much to someone like you.
