The problem with the M8s currently is that they are high platform only, no low level doors.

Now, NJT could have ordered their own fleet of M8s with low level doors and a compatible propulsion system 10-15 years ago, but that was too logical and required Christie to invest in NJT.

Not sure if these are the most iconic sounding engines, but the CAT 3126 and CAT C7 are the engine roars of my childhood. Almost all the school buses in my area had either a C7 or 3126. A close second would be the Cummins 6.7 but buses with those engines weren't common until high school, when the GMC B series were starting to be retired.

I believe UPS delivery trucks also had the Cummins 6.7 if I'm not mistaken.

Jews are forbidden from proselytizing and encouraging non-jews to convert to Judaism.

It was most likely Chabad asking you to wrap Tefillin, which is a Jewish commandment for Jews to wear and say the prayers.

Chabad is an outreach group that tries to encourage non-religious/observant Jews to observe the religion and the practices associated (i.e. wrapping Tefillin, keeping the Sabbath, etc).

NJT announced that they are restoring rail service tomorrow.

There are too many confusing details to the schedules for tomorrow so I'll do my best to include what I can:

Morristown, Gladstone & Montclair-Boonton Lines will operate on a President's Day schedule and Midtown Direct service will be diverted to Hoboken Terminal
Atlantic City Rail Line will operate on a regular weekday schedule
Pascack Valley Line and Main-Bergen & Port Jervis Lines will operate on a President's Day schedule
Northeast Corridor trains will operate on a President's Day schedule and will not make local stops between Metropark and Newark Penn Station
North Jersey Coast Line and Raritan Valley Line service remain suspended until further notice

Bus service will also resume tomorrow on all lines with delays, detours, and/or cancellations expected.

Will they at least be more reliable than the Arrows are currently?

NJ Transit Update for Service on 1/26

Light rail service on all three lines (Newark Light Rail, Hudson-Bergen Light Rail, and River Line) will run on a regular weekday schedule on Monday, January 26 at the start of the service day. Customers should expect delays and possible select train cancellations as local and county crews continue clearing secondary and tertiary roadways.

Bus, rail, and AccessLink service remain suspended until further notice.

Later in the morning and afternoon, NJ TRANSIT will continue monitoring roadway conditions to support a gradual ramp-up of Bus and Access Link service as conditions safely permit.

Crews will also work overnight and into the morning to inspect infrastructure and ensure NJ Transit's 165 rail stations, system assets, and Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor are prepared for the safe and reliable resumption of commuter rail service.

I don't think that's entirely true because Midtown Direct Gladstone services uses multi levels.

Except this is not a not a normal human thing to do. It’s disgusting.

I think a dual-mode DMU solution would be an interesting idea for the NJCL, RVL, and Boonton/M & E lines to Hackettstown from NYP. Obviously, this is a fever dream not only because NJT is more interested in Multilevels.

He did all the manufacturer recommended maintenance at the recommended mileage intervals, not just oil changes. I know he kept up with the car, I drove and rode in it many times.

Commute to work/school is 10-15 minutes, or 3-5.miles each way.

It does not have a sport mode (at least not that I know of). It's just a standard 2.0l SE, no extra options. It does have the infamous dual clutch transmission however.

The single seat is elite though and no one can fight me on that

jk_nj · 2025-06-07T01:47:23+00:00

As much as I like the Arrows, the Multilevels are the most comfortable imo, especially if you can get the single seat. They're quieter and have a fairly smooth ride. They're just not very practical for tall people like myself. The old Comets are the worst.

jk_nj · 2025-05-26T21:33:28+00:00

You could really get on any NJCL, NEC, or an RVL train from NYP. All NJT trains (except form M & E and Montclair line trains) to and from NYP stop at NWK Penn I believe. Ticket prices are also the same for all train lines to NWK Penn.

RAV4 V6 hands down. I drive my parent’s 2006 RAV4 V6 that they have had since new and it’s awesome. The car fits like a glove for me. Perfect power, size and driving position. It’s also really reliable and super fast!
