I looked over your posts to see what you were talking about.  I sure didn't see anything.  Real friends wear safety shoes, don't worry about their toes.

I've had some pretty serious disagreements here, both on and off topic.  Sure hope we are still friends.

Its a sad sign of the times when it is no longer OK to disagree.  If I think somebody has said something stupid then I'll tell him so to his face or online.  That doesn't mean I dislike the person or that my version of the truth is necessarily correct.  It just means I disagree.  It can progress to meaning that I think the person in question is a fool or an asshole but it certainly doesn't have to.

Robert, I don't see where you are stepping on anyones toes not mine for sure we all do it different ways on this so called hobby man I hate that term hobby.
As a Eagle owner it takes a lot to hurt my toes LOl keep posting someone will use that information from you.
 My point about the slides was not to tell you it could not be done and the point you made about research was very good advice.  
If I offended you I am very sorry that was not my intent but when you are older than dirt you will amazed at the things you see and what people have done to these poor old buses LOL  
My comment about the Prevost slides came from first hand experience Prevost had to buy back my XL after 3 years of trying to fix their screw up and after that circus I don't go near a slide.



good luck

Bob,
Well, all I have to say is "welcome to the club, Pal!" LOL  Feeling as if we put a foot in our mouth is just part of having to communicating by BB rather than in person and eye to eye.  I'm sure most of us would prefer that; call it the unending bus rally.  That would be fun.  Don't worry, be happy!  I have winced at a couple of my own posts, too.

Bob,

I second what Dennis said, plus some.

I continue to be amazed when I actually meet people from the BBS that I have either had discussions with or listened to read for years.

In "my" minds eye some are exactly as I pictured and some totally the opposite in person.

I have met several who sounded like a hard a$$ on the BBS and are as pleasent as could be in person.

Its all in there "phraseology"

Don't sweat it!    Undecided

Bob quit worrying about stepping on toes!

Besides with those cute little fuzzy bunny slippers you were it don't hurt noway!

Now when you start wearing steel toe boots like I do and jumping up and down with all 300+ lbs. like I do you might bruise some once in a while. Grin

C'mon, Bob.

No sweat, no gain. I have offended some on here (usually not about buses though Wink), and there are just a few that I have on my ignore list (but since Frank is now a mod, he is off that list Grin Cheesy Cheesy Grin, Just kidding, Frank). Don't worry about it, and keep rolling on.

I have liked a lot of your posts, so stick around.

God bless,
