We are looking at two coaches with the intent of purchasing one of them, or at least that model.
One is powered by 8V with the four speed, and the other is powered by a 6V with the five speed. Is there any inherent advantage or disadvantage with either combination. I have been told that the five speed makes up for the lack of hp. Any comments will be appreciated.

The five speed does not make up for the 170hp differential, but does help some.
