Just taking an idea of how wide to make the parking spaces at our lot. Our buses (C2s) are 10 feet wide from side to side, including mirror brackets & open doors. I was thinking of making the spots 12 feet wide, but I am beginning to think that 11 feet might be sufficient.

Any ideas?

Sufficient maybe, desirable doubtful. Only one foot clearance between mirror brackets on precisely parked buses? Sooner or later there is going to be contact.

Why yes, the ORIGinal CHARGER is a Fastback

I'll go out and measure my spaces tomorrow. From what you've told me about your drivers....I'd say 20 feet would be best.
