Use in U.S.

Thirty-five foot (≈10.6 m) and shorter buses are used in some cities, either on curvy routes, low-traffic suburban services, or at airports as shuttles between terminals and parking lots or car-rental agencies. However, I don't have any comprehensive list of which services use these vehicles. 66.234.222.96 (talk) 06:28, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I note that various China bus manufacturers are offering midibus based trucks which they call out as "cargo vans". I agree with the nomenclature "van", because one can walk from the drivers seat to the rear door. I agree with the nomenclature "cargo" because there are no seats rear of the driver's seat; and because the majority of the sidepanel has no windows. My first question is, do the Korean or Japanese manufacturers offer these vehicles, perhaps as variants of a (e.g., "Toyota Coaster") passenger-bus? Second question is, are these chinabus-cargo-vans covered anywhere in Wikipedia? 119.93.51.126 (talk) 14:41, 21 December 2009 (UTC)alanmark@breakthru.com[reply]

Graphics

I suggest a graphic with the different bus sizes:

Minibus (less than 8 meters).
Midibus (between 8 and 11 m).
Full-size bus (more than 11 m).

Thanks in advance. --Nopetro (talk) 09:46, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
