"My usual destination when flying into EWR is South Orange, which is only 11 miles from the airport but not very convenient via train/bus since it's not on the main NEC NJ Transit line."
How about taking the NJ Transit go28 bus from the airport to Newark's Broad Street Station, and a train to South Orange from there?
