I have yet to hear or read a rational negative critique of the Nova low floors. As one who sees them and has ridden them, I count them as the best things that have heppened to NYCTA bus transit since the 870s were yanked away on false pretenses. The Novas are really cool looking. They are the quietest buses in NYC since the Brooklyn trolley busses were discontinued. (Quiet is good in loud NYC. Why are all the other buses so damn loud by comparison?) They have rear windows. What's the problem? Orion finally came up with a really good looking design with the new generation, and then they closeed shop! What a disappointment. The best builder left standing is Nova; the rest, by comparison, are ugly boxes on wheels. |
