The Thomas Built Buses Minotour is a type A school bus that is available on a Ford or GMC/Chevrolet chassis. The Minotour is so strong and durable that a 18,000-pound Type D Saf-T-Liner EF bus was parked on its roof without extra reinforcement. Its steel cage construction and one-piece, skirt-to-skirt steel rafter held up so well that all its windows and doors still opened easily without binding.[1]
