65578 is a 1999 MCI 102DL3. This bus has a DD60 engine and Allison B500R6 tranny ( with retarder ). I had the pleasure of taking the CSUF sports team on a 3-day roadtrip to Northern CA in this bus - it was awesome. Photo taken at San Jose, CA

The drivers area of the MCI seems to be nicer and more ergonomic than the VanHool.
Do the looks match the reality of that?

I find the VanHools C series to me more ergonomical than the J4500s. You cant push the seat back to get comfty in the Js. The ISRI seats are a different story
