N113, 0405s and b10tls are worst. justify that. -

N113, 0405s and b10tls are only noisy from the outside. It is quite quite quiet from the inside. Mark III is noisy from the inside. Anyway, I do love the B10TL Super Olympians. -

It all depend on the particular bus of that model that one have taken and the opinion that they have on it.
All of us here have different opinions on each of the bus model
Some of the Mk4s can be loud while some can be soft too..... -

2671B is the nosiest bus I've ever sat on. So noisy radiator...O405s are good but their exhaust stinks. Some O405s are also lousy... especially SBS 414R. Ever since ZF conversion it's engine is 3 times louder.

V-O-I-T-H.4 - S-P-E-E-D.
What's with the culture these days?
Can you guys verify politely?
I don't blame some of you if you guys don't know that a few of the early MKIV DMs are actually fitted with 4 speed voiths, but I really don't get the satisfaction behind trying to shoot me down.
As a side-note, I'm still trying to hunt down these buses. It's a bit difficult to tell these buses from the usual 3 speed ones.

I agree with you. Words can sometimes look very rude with things like "think b4 u post" with all the short forms for nothing. Just like you, I really don't know what's with the culture these days. -

Favourite Service: 168
How it became my favourite service: Was introduced to this service during Term 3 of my Sec 1. Found that it was typically a much faster route as compared to Service 18 and 69 and so started taking this route frequently. Additionally an added advantage of linking to several places I ususally go to such as Tampines Mall, Tampines Regional Library and the three megastores in Tampines.
Also my favourite service through my favourite LO, SBS 9199C.
Favourite buses on this service: SBS 9145H, SBS 9194R, SBS 9199C, SBS 9314L, SBS 9462S, SBS 9487X
Favourite buses formerly perm on this service: SBS 0395L, SBS 2813J
Trivia (About me regarding this service):
1. I've taken nearly each and every bus on this service except SBS 9193T and ex-perm SBS 2724H.
2. For any ride on my favourite LO (SBS 9199C) starting this year, I will be paying by cash.
3. I've not started reading S168 timesheets as yet due to time constrains.
4. I've not managed to take time to go for a full ride from Bedok to WRI, though I've taken the whole route in parts. -
