This is a decent bus for York regional transit although I don’t like the bus transmission that York Brampton and Mississauga use I find it quite annoying. It gives me sensory overload. These buses can kind of it, but it’s really hard to get to a pretty high speed before it. Can do that.
I'm personally a huge fan of Voith and have gotten over the sensory overload thanks to MiWay's 0338 (its gearbox whir at a standstill can really get to you, I reckon). Thankfully, anything after DIWA.3E was refined and I honestly think DIWA.6 gearboxes (and in some cases, DIWA.5 like this D40LF had) have it best in terms of keeping the noise levels down!
