We are glad the <strong>Bus 4&#215;4 Conversion of Coaster<\/strong> is doing the job it is expected to do.<\/p>\n<p>Read the testimonial below:<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, I would like to let you know that I was a major skeptic of your buses abilities when the head engineer at Fraser Island Adventure Tours told me we were hiring a Bus 4&#215;4 Coaster Conversion for peak season. So with massive apprehension I took it out to the Island for our Adventure Tour. Letting the 285 tyres down at Rainbow Beach, I sighed as one of our other buses has the same size tyre, and I have had issues with it before. I drove down to Inskip Point for my first soft sand challenge with the little Coaster, stopping just before the really soft sand to lock it into low range. I changed up gears until I was in 3rd with fairly high revs so I could flick shift into second when I started to lose momentum.<\/p>\n<p>I was all tense, ready to flick it down a gear to preserve momentum, bracing for that moment when you hear the engine start to labour and your speed starts to ease. In absolute shock, I emerged from the soft sand into the hard wet sand in front of the barge without any issues. My concerns all gone, a weight of my shoulders, finally a bus that can deal with the atrocities of Island touring! I reserved judgement until the end of the day, but kept being proved wrong at every challenge.<\/p>\n<p>There was nothing that seemed to worry this bus, it drove through everything the Island threw at us in normally dry boggy testing conditions in sand. I was so impressed I have started to hassle the company owner to buy one. In my eyes they are a capable, trustworthy (Toyota) cost effective solution when compared with other similar products out there. I would not hesitate to buy one!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-16171\" src=\"https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-Fraser-1.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-Fraser-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"225\" title=\"\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27450%27%20height%3D%27225%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20450%20225%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27450%27%20height%3D%27225%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-Fraser-1-200x100.jpg 200w, https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-Fraser-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-Fraser-1-400x200.jpg 400w, https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-Fraser-1.jpg 450w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-16172\" src=\"https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-2.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"225\" title=\"\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27450%27%20height%3D%27225%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20450%20225%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27450%27%20height%3D%27225%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-2-200x100.jpg 200w, https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-2-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-2-400x200.jpg 400w, https:\/\/nz.bus4x4.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Coaster-Tour-Bus-2.jpg 450w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Darryl Roper | Guide, Fraser Island Adventure Tours<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A wow testimonial from Fraser Island Adventure Tours.
