I’ve asked a few Amdep BCs which do they prefer to drive between OC & Citaro,The answer is suprisingly Citaro.

I read a Facebook comment by a BC some years back and he said he preferred Citaro because the driver's seat is more comfortable or something along that lines and that OC seat was "back breaking" for long distance routes.

As from driver view its the other way round..Both buses capped at 60kmh.A22 does better with feeders and many stop and go svc while Ciporo is suitable for expressway service.

How is the shitaro even suitable? Save fuel??

That fucking adblue tho??

That's not even the comparison bro, and the OC is indeed heavier than the Citaro, and hence harder to control..

They complained about the higher side mirrors,braking and the retarder.In fact the OC is more powerful than Citaro although its slightly heavier than Citaro..12L 299hp/1250nm vs puny 6.4L 282hp/1120nm hahaha

I would love to meet the fucking asshole behind the job..

I also did ask the loyang smrt starter why deploy all Citaro,They say all its LTA. Becareful of what you say bro,A few LTA managements also a user here.

SMB128B SG

It is miles more powerful.. the OC can conquer that slope like a breeze..

The shitaro like a golf cart fml

Expressway no need to do stopping and no traffic lights mah..Citaro breakdown prone but easy to repair as the engine is not that complex.Even OC is the 2nd bus that easier to repair.

What to do?Its already a standardised model for every operator beside the B9TL.

Thanks to both SMRT & SBST for being the first in SG to bring in the Citaro and to massive purchase.

So? The shitaro is noisier, jerkier and rougher still. What ADVANTAGES does the shitaro have tho??

Hahaha SMRT alr knew what a rabak piece of shit the shitaro is.. hence their small order..

It's the fucking SBST back then that had money to burn and bring in so much of it.. to the extent there are surplus..

Cheaper spare parts and easier to repair as the engine is much straightforward.

Its actually a good bus until they start with the detuning of gearing power..

SBST is more to cost saving and SMRT is the otherwise because back then SMRT runtime is so jialat that even Dennis Lance can go up to 80kmh..Now 969 even do 40kmh at expressway..đ

After the 1st Citaro landed in Amdep ive already left SMRT though i still doing part time as NR BCs.Yes i do miss the O405,O405G,UD and Lance.When i do training last time,My trainer stop at Wldep and Kjdep to let us test drive the CRL & DAF/Hino respectively and as former SBST BC too,SMRT buses is way better in terms of performance compared to SBST fleet

'Shitaro' LOL creative and memeworthy name indeed. Few years back bus enthus were praising Citaro because it was said to be more 'smoother' than the 'jerky' or 'unstable' KUBs, and it looks more stylish etc etc unti operators mass purchase Citaro then all complain lol. I generally dislike Citaros but I prefer SMRT spec ones because got more seats than the SBST ones albeit weaker aircon. Just wished SMRT spec citaros were mass purchased instead.

I wish LTA change to ZF Ecolife...Much better acceleration than the detuned Voith.
