Hey good Wazua people, hope you are working hard and having fun!

I have a question as indicated above: I intend to launch a mission, maybe this year, next year or even in the next ten years!!

My question is this, between an Isuzu 33 seater NQR and a HINO 52 seater which one would be better to ply along Thika Highway? The estimates are as follows:

Isuzu 33 seater NQR: 5 million
HINO 52Seater: 5 million

For the 33 seater Isuzu NQR, some of the details i have gathered are as follows:

Chassis/ cabin. =sh 3,502,000
Manyanga body. = ksh.1.2 {depending with features}
Registration number plate= ksh15, 000.
Advance tax @ksh, 720 per seat= ksh 23,760.
Comprehensive insurance cover = ksh 450,000.
Music system advanced = ksh. 150,000.
Sacco registration & tlb license.= ksh. 20,000.00

TOTAL. =Ksh. 5,360,760.

The Hino minibus


Reliable info on returns after an extensive research assuming that they are both new:

Isuzu 33 seater: Kshs. 10,000 per day for 6 days a week (after paying the crew and paying for minor repairs) this is guaranteed for about the first two years of buying the bus

HINO 52 seater minibus: Kshs. 15,000 per day 6 days a week (after paying the crew and paying for minor repairs) this is guaranteed for about the first two years of buying the bus

Any 2cents on this? Which is the best option?

Thank you.
