OMG! The moment the #9 pulled up this morning, I was wondering why I wasn't gagging. As soon as I stepped on there was that new clean smell too (instead of the crummy, soggy, dead beast smell). I was in disbelief! I have never been so comfortable on a Metro Transit bus—the new high seats are amazing for the back. PLEASE PLEASE keep the new hybrid on the #9 route and PLEASE PLEASE invest in more! If I had those seats everyday and didn't have to breathe in the dirty exhaust everyday I would be more than willing to pay a bit more for my monthly pass! THANK YOU SO MUCH for making my morning a breath of fresh air! —Hybrid Lover
