Our dream was to help minimize and even eliminate drinking and driving. Soon after we had begun we realized that we were facing a huge challenge, as MADD turned us down for and endorsement, operating costs were sky high with fuel, maintenance wear and even the cost of advertising our name “San Diego Limobuses” alone would sink us. We were facing bankruptcy in just a matter of months. With very few passengers on board, the numbers just weren’t there.
So now what? What could we do with this Airport shuttle bus? Our original bar shuttle bus service plan was out the window and we had no backup plan. The shuttle bus was a slightly used Airport shuttle bus from dollar rent a car that we purchased for 15 thousand; with taxes and new paint and upholstery, we had over 20 grand invested and at the time obviously, this was quite a bit of money to walk away from.
The one thing this Airport shuttle bus had that was unique at the time was the perimeter U-shape seating. A charter bus company in San Diego at the time were row seating. When a group of people wanted to do a party bus, they just threw an ice chest full of drinks and brought their own music box system. After many discussions as to what we would do with our Airport shuttle bus, Chris Forcier commented: “The answer is right in front of us.” We should become an SD Charter Bus Company. Our unique perimeter style seating makes for a much better party bus. The interior is much nicer vs. our vehicles competitors row seating, especially for corporate charter bus groups. After all our perimeter seating was much more conducive to conversations than a row seating Tour bus. Soon our party buses began to catch on after about a year.
