Not being rude...but why do you people have to stress on the part "OAC Scanias are the least...."? It's getting kind of annoyingOriginally posted by leeJZ:Agree 100%OAC Scanias are the least comfortable in SBS fleet, even the CAC Scanias are MUCH better.

I knew it's long time ago. It's just that a lot of peoplelike to complain about ScaniaOriginally posted by leeJZ:Why is it annoying? That post is quite some time back already![]()
Scania only meh?Thought many ppl hate MK3s tooOriginally posted by cck_190:I knew it's long time ago. It's just that a lot of peoplelike to complain about Scania![]()
Well buses are buses,Got good and bad points,Although MK3s are not that fast but in terms of reliability and practically it is a good buses in my Technical opinions.Well you've not seen Mechanics drag testing them inside the Depot haven't you?You'll be surprised.Another thing is that bus companies don't care whether it is fast or not as long it is not problematic and cost effective buses.Originally posted by leeJZ:Mk3s are hated by virtually everyone in this forum...slow and underpowered.
DAFs are another.
Scanias and VSOs have their small hate-squad

Demand for Sv 963 was quite low, majority of the traffic being Bukit Panjang - Woodlands Int / Woodlands Ave 3 - Woodlands Int traffic plus a moderate demand in Hillview Estate. Virtually no one boarded in Bukit Batok and no traffic at Toh Tuck Ind Est. Does Sv 963 have bendies?
Sv 168 really deserves a full DD fleet at its current frequency of about 10 min, as the line grows very fast. Sv 161 should also have a full DD fleet or increase frequency. [/b]
Originally posted by leeJZ:963 has high demand during peak hours, you can see those workers, soldiers (from MINDEF) squeezing on bendies.
