What makes Diamond uniquely different? Our buses are impact resistant.
Try this experiment. Obtain a cross section piece of a Diamond bus and one from a metal competitor. Place each cross section on the ground. Next, hit both pieces with the same amount of force using a mallet. Which piece does the dent appear?
