MCI F-Series

Buses and Road Mass Transit Vehicles

The MCI F-Series, sold as the F3500, was a 35-foot coach that Motor Coach Industries marketed in the United States and Canada from about 2000. It was the first 35-foot coach carrying the MCI name since the MC-5 and was basically the Dina F12 of Mexico with more modern cosmetic styling for the US market, labeled as an MCI even though Dina built it. It came out of the closer cooperation between MCI and the Mexican builder DINA, which had bought MCI shares in 1994, and the same cooperation produced the G models. The F3500 was offered as a conversion shell and remained the last 35-foot MCI coach until the J3500 appeared in 2018.
