Somebody needs to put a recorder at the tailpipe of one of these buses.

You need to turn the fuel up so it rolls coal. Sounds like a semi truck!

Aljenny can you sell me one please

Jenny can you sell me one please

Houston we Straightpiped the bus

Was that automatic - that you mentioned - stock? When I was a little guy, it seems that remember the one that I rode on was an automatic.

10, sooo much better than 5! All the Crowns I worked on were 5 speeds, the Crummins had the best torque but the Detroit's sounded the best

I’m surprised that it passes smog in commifornia aka California

sounds like a rb26

I wanna buy one of your busus how much are they price please

It seems to me that when I was in kindergarten and first grade, I rode on one of these equipped with an automatic transmission.

I didn’t know about adding a little ATF or motor oil to the diesel fuel to old diesel engines.

If you're going to waste your time & money with a GTO hood? You may as well have a RAMAIR.... Nice car, idiot owner that isn't worthy of it.

Its now a $1,000,000 school bus.

I miss those old 5 speed Crowns. That bus sounds wonderful!

That’s awesome and loud!

So good. She know how to drive.

PURE BLACK EXHAUST BLOWING OUT THE PIPES.❤

REMEMBER THOSE IN HIGH SCHOOL BUS IN BELLEVUE WASHINGTON STATE. ALL ENGINE NOT MUCH ROOM IN THE ROUND AREA IN BACK OF BUS PURE POWER.❤❤❤ LOVE TO GET 1 BUT OK EVERYTHING IS 🙃 MONEY 💰 🤑 💸 🙃 ❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉😊 HE IS LIKE A KIDS IN A CANDY STORE.❤ 😆 🤣

Love the C.

That is impressive watching you fly through 9 unsuncronized gears in traffic

Is Al Jennings doing okay. There hasn’t been any new videos since the beginning of 2024.

If you enjoy driving buses this much, you should call a bus company and they can actually pay you money to drive. Greyhound can give you a route from Los Angeles, California to Phoenix, Arizona or from Dallas, Texas to Jackson, Mississippi, as well as many other routes across the country. Imagine getting paid to do what you enjoy doing.

Crown should entered the transit bus market, they would have taken the ball from Flxible.

Leave him alone he might not want to make a left........

How is it that you can shift without using the clutch? I was alwYs told that it will strip the gears.

$10,000 for a paint 🎨 job! I know a guy who would have done it for $10.00 same quality lol 😂! If it ain’t got air suspension it ain’t worth it! lol 😂!

Bring back this CROWN 👑!

Beautiful sound! So much nostalgia listening to that loud rumbling diesel engine!

I miss those old 5 speed Crowns. That bus sounds wonderful!

how long ago was it retired?

what engine?

LOVE TO SEE A OLD CROWN SCHOOL BUS AGAINST A NEW THOMAS SCHOOL BUS ON A MILE.DRAG STRIP. CROWN WITH THE DETROIT DIESEL ENGINE

My childhood memories being unlocked. My school was a small district but we did have one of these in the fleet. Was always exciting to ride in it as the spare bus filling in.

I just LOVE ❤️ that bass motor!!

Sounds like a triple cylinder snowmobile lol

What was the last year these Intercities with those interesting slope ends were built?

I love driving 10 speed too! I run KW T880 super 10 dump truck with a paccar Mx-13 and Eaton fuller 10 speed so it’s a Cadillac but that bus you have there sir is a gem in fact I would almost pay you to let me drive:)

Torch red?

This bus is from Ventura

now this is a crown. the tandem rear axle is a proper crown to me. if only it had a 6v92 in it that would even make it more of a proper crown.

When was it retired?

Love the 6-71 Detroit Diesels

Rode in them from 1974 to 1983. Ocean View and Oxnard Union High School districts.

Very nice crown bus . Is it a 5 gear or 10 gear?

Cool. I attended apple valley unified years ago on tandem crowns with detroits 35 years ago. They were slow and loud

The only reason they got rid of the crowns is because of the environmentalists

Better then any of the new crap today

What’s the Fuel per mile?

That was a cummins engine
