  • Today's video features something a bit older than what I'm used to. An 8V71 two-stroke that was as smooth as butter. Join myself and a few colleagues on an unplanned drive around Alexandria, VA.

    Oh my gosh!!! Grey hound buses I used to ride on in 1988 with manual doors and 1989 was just like that with automatic doors! That brings back memories! I was 8 and 9 years old at those times!!! I would ride almost every Friday and Sunday from boarding house I was staying at during school week to my family 2 hours north of school. I would give any days to ride one of those old mci buses.

    We had 10 96A3's at my job.
    The gas peddle would fall to the floor when the air bled out at night.

    Correct me if I’m wrong but it was an ex Raritan Valley Bus service bus from the past

    Love these old buses!
    Newer buses tend to have so much needless tech like sensors, which is abysmal in cities like one of your videos I saw.
    This buses’ character is how simplistic it is and how iconic the design of this bus is. Sure it’s a giant box, but everything down to the lights and satisfying looking buttons is what’s great about it.
    Curious to know if you like modern buses driving wise better or not?
    Great video! I remember being one one of these a long time ago.

      I agree with you. I really don't like the hyper-sensitive sensors on newer equipment because they are intrusive and sometimes wrong. Bendix's cameras pick up speed limit signs and will harass you if you are going 5 mph over and then restrict throttle if you're 10 mph and over. Sometimes, it picks up exit ramp speed limit signs and that infuriates me to no end. Not to mention the lane-keep assist that will pick up cracks in pavement between lanes and scream at you. Yeah, I prefer the older stuff.

      @@eugew23 I’ve been in some newer busses and I’ve seen a driver once that was about to lose his patience with constant beeps. It was winter and the sensors were getting covered with snow.
      If the bus was empty, I’m almost certain his windshield would have had the brunt of his frustration.

    Tristan needs to put you in a 1984 Prevost LeMirage. Or a Fishbowl with no power steering.

    I'm surprised that this 102C3 has an 8V71 instead of a 6V92TA or 8V92TA !

    • @eugew23
      @eugew23  6 місяців тому +1

      I'm guessing the 8V71 was a less commonly optioned engine for this bus?

    Interior looks like a 2022 mci d series without the digital screen which shows how ancient some American buses are, discontinued now I think??

    • @ag6371
      @ag6371 4 місяці тому +1

      The D series was mostly untouched since 1992 except that digital cluster and LED lighting
