     But there is more! The LED signage is way easier to read with the high def and high contrast white.

     All door boarding of course, but with plug doors rather than ones that swing in and hit you.

     The most noticeable thing is the combined way better bus ride quality and the better road quality makes the rider crazy smooth - seriously better than a Toronto streetcar it's wild.
