A true bus is much, much bigger than a 350 (source, I drive a bus). An E350 has a GVWR of around 4-5 tons. I drive busses with GVWRs of 16-27 tons. (Their visibility is much, much better than this because the engine is in the back like basically all full busses) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 year ago (1 child) neat! also fwiw where i'm at anything that seats 9 or more requires a cdl permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] kerrigan778@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago Ah, where I am it's "designed to seat" more than 16 for it to require a CDL.
