3we Posted June 15, 2023 Report Share Posted June 15, 2023 Starcraft Allstar (E350 chassis) 2014: 2544 2016: 3545 - 3586 2018: 3587 - 3636 2019: 3637 - 3661 2021: 3662 - 3670 That was as of October 2021. A new "order off the menu" contract was written in April 2021, which covers Public Transit and other agencies. There were many checks written in 2022 and 2023, so I suspect there might be at least 20 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that 3358-3384 are 2007 models, 3386-3414 are 2008, 3415-3425 are 2009, 3451 is a 2010, and 3499-3538 are 2014. Are you able to fill in the blanks for the numbers not mentioned here. I believe that 2011 and 2013 models existed but I lack any knowledge of which units they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3we Posted June 15, 2023 Report Share Posted June 15, 2023 That was what was on the active roster at the time. Adding to that, 3550, 3553, 3562, 3607, 3616 were not on there. Remember that 3546, 3615, and 3661 were auctioned last month. Eight years is about as long as you want to go with those things - I can't believe anything before 2014 is still in service.

I was wondering if you had information from previous rosters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
