Just got the word, that because there are more straight night runs next pick Albany wants more Gillig Hybrids being they have cameras, so Troy is going to give them some with their original Orions in return.

No, not really, nor the Novas either for that matter.

Why don't you like the Nova's, I like the Orions out of all of them so I'm glad, I dislike the Gilligs as well.

I dislike the Novas for a variety of reasons, I don't think they ride well, some of them can not get out of their own way but that depends on which engine is in them, I realize that some of them have different engines in them from when they were new. You can tell by listening to them which are original & which are not.

Nova's all have the same engine but 3001-3011 and 3021-3030 have a smaller one.

If they all have the same engines, then why do some sound completely different from others ?
