Monocoque Chassis and Newell We stated that "buses are typically limited to two slides." You are correct in stating that there have been three slide buses. But the numbers have been very limited. Bus shells with "factory built" slides are limited to two. It is our understanding that this is for structural reasons. We have talked with an independant installer of slides in bus shells. He told us that in his opinion the structural changes required to install a third slide in a bus and the size and location limitations of the third slide made the concept, in his opinion, unattractive. We stand by our original statement that buses are typically limited to only two slides.
