SFGAm V2: More consistent, less popular?

Based on trip reports, V2 waits this year have been very short, and consistently shorter than Bull, which was not the case last year. Also, I haven't heard many reports of it breaking down. So, in conclusion:

1. Have they finally worked out the kinks?

2. Have people decided it's not that great a ride?

Well, I can say, after getting in my 3rd ride on the 4th, back seat, it has allowed me to have all 3 types of rides on it: front, middle, back. Last Thursday, I was NOT willing to wait more than 30 minutes for it. The only time I saw a short line was when it was broken down, but I didn't get upset, as after riding Deja Vu, it just seems like a 'nothing' ride. Hell, everything seems like a 'nothing' ride. (Don't get me wrong, everything is still fun, but not scary like Deja Vu. You never know when thats not going to break down, hopefully it won't when you are on it.)

-----------------
Deja Vu count this season: 1, but thats still more than most other people who've been to SFGAm this season!

When I went this last Thursday and Friday it had a line. I dont think its lost its popularity. Its just on the side of the park that doesnt have as many people.

Its seems to be more reliable so far this year. Its had its temporary break-downs but nothing significant.

i think people would rather wait the same time for RB and get a better ride, but thats fine with me because i've probably been on RB a couple hundred times and if i only have to wait 20 minutes for the back on V2 i'll be fine with that...

The park has only been open for a few weeks, and the weather has been pretty crap for all of them. Last Sunday (mothers day) the park was so empty that most rides were only running one train, and the waits were still only 5 or 10 minutes.

Give it time!

Well if it is getting more reliable and the lines are shorter maybe I will actually get to ride the stupid thing this year. I had a chance to ride two impulses this last year. V2 at Great America which was either broken down or sporting unacceptible 3 hour lines every time I was there and S:UE which was broken down when I was at SFWOA. I really want to finally get to ride these things especially after riding Mr. Freeze this weekend and finding out that spikes arent really that scary :)
