Gross vehicle weight rating for this bus is 54,000 lbs. Compare the heaviest MCI D-series at 48,000 lbs.

Yup, all of that weight will degrade and destroy roads
Plus, the tires will wear out faster. The higher frequency of more expensive tire changes will increase variable cost per mile to operate the junk
