Try using Cargo Market with your own drop deck trailer. Also search for jobs outside of Oklahoma too.

Yeah, unfortunately the RNG is a problem with a lot of the jobs that are tied into achievements. You just have to keep hoping something pops up. At the very least, these jobs should come more frequently when there is a WoT event ongoing so we can try to kill two birds with one stone.

Ultimately, I end up just advancing time in the console until the jobs appear in the Freight Market and do them that way. For a few past achievements, I literally had to advance the in game time over a month until I got enough jobs to complete it. Fortunately, I maintain one clean save before doing this, so I can get the achievement out of the way, and go back to that save before I advanced the time and get back to normal gameplay.

I've only ever seen one (1) bus hood cargo and it was from MWM to someplace that was not Yelco I believe, or I would've done it. Never got another one to appear in quick jobs, freight, cargo, or external contracts since I got the DLC 11 days ago. Even school bus hauls are rare but bus *hoods* seem as real as sasquatch. I did end up buying my own drop deck too but still don't get any to spawn.

If they were not achievements they would be easy to find, that is why they are called achievements!

every other achievement requirement was easy to do, so far its around 6-9 times sleep and 2 WoT contracts inbetween until i find 1 bus hood job. its super rare but doaable

Both loads do crop up in the External jobs but they are rare and for the hoods hitting the target depot is a chore. I would suggest that the best bet is the MWM yards in either Oklahoma or Tulsa and then you can back and forth with the bus cargo. You're also fighting with everyone else trying to do the same achievement, especially at Yelco itself.

Hi! I've just finished a job Bus from Tulsa to The Dalles. But as I see it not count in "achievements". Anybody knows why?
I gotta admit I like when the achievements are related to testing my own ability (deliver it in time, no damage, no fines), but I hate these ones based on pure luck (wait for the right cargo to/from the exact city, to/from the exact company).

Rant over, the best to do here is rely on quick jobs - they're exactly the same jobs you can get in-loco, with the difference you can start it right away, instead of risking trying to reach there with your own truck and the job isn't available when you arrive.

You need to take the bus from the company Yelco. MWM and shipping companies don't count.

The achievement description is
Deliver 5 Bus Hood cargoes to and 5 School Bus cargoes from the bus factory in Tulsa
Sufficiently easy to miss and IMO it should specify the bus factory is Yelco but it's not a hidden requirement at least.

I do not mind attempting "rare" achievements, but I have to admit, this one is extremely frustrating to the point of not wanting to play for the last week or more. I agree with other comments about completing achievements on time with no damage, etc. I actually prefer those achievement requirements.

This and the deliver wind turbine parts in Colorado become infinitely easier using a trailer ( drop deck or flat beds if i remember correctly ) The jobs show up WAAY more often in the Cargo Market lists than the Freight Market.

Kinda feels like these were meant to be somewhat like a tutorial to get people to try trailers.

I am using my own trailer and still cannot find jobs that meet the posted requirements. I will keep looking, but for now, I am concentrating on the "Cruising The Balkans - West Balkans" and "Cruising The Balkans - Road to the Black Sea" events in Euro Truck Simulator 2.
