A current-generation International 3300 chassis & cowl with a current-generation Ward/AmTran/IC body, a 2005 model year already being auctioned off due to it having the problematic VT365, one of the two diesel engine that Ford had ceased using in their Super Duty pickup trucks and in the Econoline; along with the equally problematic MaxxForce 7, and had designed their own 6.7 liter Turbo Diesel V8 engine to utilize instead.

Also, this bus is already being auctioned off likely because of the problems that are very common with a Ward/AmTran/IC body- an underbelly that is very prone to rust out and does not hold up well to corrosion, the wooden part of the underbelly that forms the floor of the inside of the bus rotting easily; and these bodies also being susceptible to structural problems over time.

As of 2016, the school district should be able to get at least a couple more years out of this bus.
