The first wiki, called WikiWikiWeb, was named by its programmer, Howard Cunningham, after this line of buses. The buses were also purchased by Pace, primarily for use in Niles, Illinois; all have now been retired, with the last one running service routes in May, 2007.
Currently there are 13 of these buses in use in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, and 8 used in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.
