* Fleet maintenance and repairs are significantly reduced to
preventative maintenance, or "scheduled" type items. Major, more costly (and
unscheduled) repairs such as engines, transmissions, differentials, and body
structure repairs are covered by warranties.

* Reduces the need for expanded facilities and/or additional
maintenance personnel to properly maintain aging buses.

* It hedges against equipment obsolescence by allowing your school to
obtain buses for a fixed, relatively short-term period.

* Transportation costs become fixed rather than variable making
financial planning and budgeting easier.

* It allows standardization of limited number of parts, tools, and
equipment to maintain buses.

* Buses operate at their peak efficiency, remaining safe in
appearance, and, most importantly, are more safe than older vehicles.

* Capital preservation and budget commitment for equipment replacement.

* Flexible payment schedules available (annual, semi-annual, monthly)

* Will immediately reduce parts and any contracted labor expenses and
will allow your school to "roll-over" your equipment before maintenance
costs begin to escalate.
