    Wow that bus definitely seems slow and sluggish. Definitely seems like it has economy mode activated

      Very might as well! It feels a bit sluggish to me, too.

    that was fun for me, gonna be a driver soon! why does it sound like you have a bunch of junk rattling around over every bump. AND, Does the bus need new shocks?

    • @eugew23
      @eugew23  Před 2 lety +1

      Ha, these buses are rattle traps. At least the ones at this agency are... This bus was pretty new at the time of the video, so all internal stuff shaking about...

    I like it very much and I wonder why you changed gear to 1 and then back to D 🤔

    • @eugew23
      @eugew23  Před rokem +1

      I wanted to hold first gear longer. I find that those buses upshift too quickly.
