Buses for Sale in Arkansas

New and used buses, vans, and shuttles delivered anywhere in Arkansas, with a dedicated regional sales rep, nationwide service coverage, and in-house financing behind every vehicle.

Known for its vast wilderness and southern charm, Arkansas offers an eclectic mix of nature and small-town living. Its capital city of Little Rock provides a prestigious historical background as a key site of the Civil Rights movement, while Arkansas Post, founded by French explorer Henri de Tonti in 1686, was the first permanent European settlement in the lower Mississippi Valley. Finally, let's not forget its role in military history, with World War II U.S. commander General Douglas MacArthur calling it home and the state's ties to Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Arkansas offers endless sightseeing opportunities, starting with the 1,000-acre Two Rivers Park, 16-mile Arkansas River Trail, the western Ouachita mountains, and the Big Dam Bridge, the country's longest bridge built just for pedestrians and cyclists. For pure entertainment options, we are big fans of the River Market District and downtown Little Rock with its growing foodie and beverage scene.

Whether it's the vast wilderness or a trip out on the town with a group of friends or employees, TESCO has the right bus for sale/used bus for sale for your riding style.

Which TESCO Vehicles Come Recommended for Arkansas Residents?

Sightseeing. With thousands of miles of rivers in Arkansas and its endless scenic drives along the Pig Trail and the Ozark Highlands, a reliable, steady cruiser is the way to go. If you want to tour with a large group, one of our favorite performers is the Turtle Top Odyssey XL, a behemoth seating up to 40 passengers with all the convenience of modern traveling. Count ultra-light luxury seating, two USB ports per row, oversized luggage racks, and touchscreen head units with Bluetooth connectivity amongst its offerings. A built-in active PA system also barks instructions and calls out the next route.

Child Care Providers. TESCO has a large inventory of child care vehicles. Referred to as MFSABs ("multi-function school activity buses), our child care buses operate similarly to school buses, excluding the all-too-familiar markings and yellow paint. Available in various configurations, many are based on our highly popular Ford E350/E450 and Chevrolet 3500/4500 chassis’

One of our tried and true favorites is the Collins MFSAB, available in 14-passenger configurations. To read customer reviews for similar models, visit Collins Reviews.

Leasing/Financing Services. TESCO Transportation LLC, or a TESCO business partner, is proud to provide bus leasing and financing services. There are many advantages to leasing with TESCO, including enhanced end-of-lease options where TESCO buses can be extended, returned, or bought out. In addition, you can enjoy improved purchasing power, preserved credit lines, and lower monthly payments.

What Leasing Options Does TESCO Provide?

TESCO provides closed-end and TRAC (open-ended) leases, as well as traditional bus loan financing.

A closed-end lease is a return lease that leaves any gap between the residual value and the true market value with the lessor, not you. Instead, make your monthly payments and return the vehicle at the end of your term. With an open-ended (TRAC) lease, your business agrees to a set residual value and settles any difference from the vehicle's actual value when the term expires. Traditional bus loan financing makes you the vehicle owner once your balance is paid off.

Does TESCO Offer Graphic Design Services?

Yes, TESCO offers bus graphic design packages on select vehicles. Our in-house graphic design team can produce and install graphics, adding full-color company logos and other contact information (e.g., website markings) on your vehicle's siding. Go for a basic graphic package with tag lines added to your bus' front, back, and beltway, or opt for partial or full wrap packages for improved visibility.
