  • Now this is my remake of my 7000s XD40 review from August 2018. This is a review of my favorite XD40s since 2018. They seem to be very appreciative than the 2011 XD40s I looked up to more since 2013. My experiences with them out of ENY, Fresh Pond, Flatbush, and Ulmer Park Depot are the most satisfying rides I have encountered. Correlating with speed, quietness, and the advanced features plus with the cleanliness. Especially I forgot to mention the clean air conditioning smells that make my days calmer.
    I am so sad for the 2 XD40s that have impacted badly in crashes in Queens. Even the latest news of #7403 that was rear-ended by a silver Maserati, driven by a DUI driver. Here it is....
    patch.com/new-...
    Furthermore, as I just transferred from MJQ Depot, I got to drive some 7000s XD40 from ENY(as a supervisor, not B/O). And those 7000s were excellent but still don't have enough taste as to the
    cuomo schemed XD40s we have.

      Elegant Toyota Driver Thanks for the tip, only problem is the destinations sign colors are different one is orange and the other is yellow. MTA bus only has orange. I’m talking about the LaGuardia Depot bus 7090-7483 are going to be the first MTA bus from Laguardia depot.

    What disappoints me about these busses is that they didn’t originally feature the Bianova on board screens.

    When I was heading to Apple 5th Avenue in August, I was waiting for a bus at 49 Street and Maddison Avenue. The I took my first 2015 New flyer XD40 from Casey Stengel Depot. It was on the Q32. I rode it till 58 street and Maddison Avenue. The exterior was the same has the 2017-2019 new flyer XD40 from Quill but it didn’t had the charging ports. Hopefully I ride those buses more often.

      I was an Orion VII NG HEV fan for 6 years between 2009 and 2015. 2016 came, and I became an Xcelsior fan. Back then, there weren't enough Xcelsiors until 2019.

    I always loved these units since the first day I saw 7090 in service on the B14..... there not as bad as everyone say they is I mean there braking systems is a bit bad bad but it ain't that bad as you think there fast and haul depending on what operator you get... these are pretty good units in my opinion

    • @AutomotiveTaurus
      @AutomotiveTaurus  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well Damien, I operated these buses recently. I don't find the braking bad like how I felt it on the RTS I took in 2017(@Quill). And yes, these XD40s are superb before the cuomofied ones came in, though they still have speed . Especially I yet didn't have no taste with #7090 when I was in ENY Depot with my uncle. And I always like these 7000s in +SBS schemes alot since they were wrapped in June.

What I heard is Baisley Park is full with their 2023 LFSs, Far Rockaway/JFK is receiving more 2024 LFSs, and is assigned to receive 73, and LaGuardia will receive both 2024 LFSs and XD40s.
