XcelsiorBoii4888 Posted November 23, 2013 Share #10001 Posted November 23, 2013 Well that doesn't mean that the RTS's are leaving brooklyn. What if the MTA took away the XD40's from UP and brought them to FP, GA or even Manhattan Depots. Well i know the RTS arent leaving...so thats why i want bustime so i can know when an XD40 is coming..if the XD40s leave..then im using JG routes... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I've heard guys having bus favorites, but waiting for a specific bus model every single day is just completely stupid. Its just a waste of time, just take whatever comes first and that's it. BusTime doesn't do miracles. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you lived in Staten Island so why are you in Brooklyn all the time. Those Orion's are suffering as well. Next year the RTS's and Orion v's all together will be between 15-18 years old time for them to go 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XcelsiorBoii4888 Posted November 23, 2013 Share #10004 Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) Well im not paying $2.50 for an RTS...i ride the O5s all the time on staten island...over there i ride anything all the buses feel safe and run good...not my favorite..but i dont mind them. In brooklyn...i ride the B1, B8, B82, B36 B68 etc. So i dont care which bus i take...except an RTS. They smell like gas fumes...junk...dont feel safe...they jerk..so...why should i have a terrible ride...when i can have a decent ride in the next ten minutes. I dont accept garbage...i like official legit things...shyt the O5s are just like the RTS in terms of age and i rather ride them anyday.

All of the older diesel buses act the same way. Orion Vs jerk and I've been on a hell of a lot of them to know that, same for EVERY OTHER diesel bus in the system. This is getting ridiculous. Just pay your 2.50 and get one whatever comes through first. Stop finding faults in something just because. There's buses I don't like, but I don't avoid them. If I gotta get somewhere, I will. And if its all about the B400R thing, take that logic and shove it. To avoid a whole system of lines because of a specific fleet being gone and you're refusing to ride a different fleet is an obsession. But that's my 2 cents Edited November 23, 2013 by Cait Sith 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tell you more and more people around here are starting to sound like a certain R32 fan.

Grand Concourse Posted November 23, 2013 Share #10009 Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) Noticed on thursday a b11 c40lf 491? Had what looked like damage to the rear right side like something was broken off and there looked like some greenish corrosion forming there. Dunno how long ago it happened, but hope they fix it asap. This is just getting ridiculous. jeez, and i thought that nonsense was put to rest a while ago, sigh can't change some habits i guess...

Turbo19 Posted November 24, 2013 Share #10011 Posted November 24, 2013 What if...

Culver Posted November 24, 2013 Share #10015 Posted November 24, 2013 Didn't catch the number, but saw an Orion V on the B57 today and it looked like it just came out of the paintshop. Looked absolutely spotless and shiny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadway Local Posted November 26, 2013 Share #10020 Posted November 26, 2013 Those new C40LFs have gotten so boring now, IMO... I haven't rode a XD40 since, uhhhh, August 22nd of 2013. Gotta ride that bus more often. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta ride that bus more often. Righty! But it's funny how the C40s get boring faster than the XD40s. I live by two ENY routes & a FP route (F***k the Q54). So for me it's kinda the other way around lol Coming from someone that grew up by the B67, I don't really miss JG routes as much I thought I would when I moved.
