Actually on the ARFF Side, Rosenbauer is making a pretty comperable product and the new Oshkosh Striker has a lot of the features that the Rosenbauer Panther has (I'm not saying they copied it but its an awful coincidence that they rolled out something very similar after going to airports that have Rosie's). The Rosenbauer version of the Snozzle is a much better product and its a pretty nice truck to drive.

Ive actually been to the Reagan Station, my Volly Deputy Chief is a Technician there, and we toured the firehouse and even got to check out their Stryker, and they are in love with it, they love the way it drives and its operating features. Im sure if any of those guys from there have a say in it, it will be a Stryker. Rosenbauer is building junk honeslty. There fit and finish work is uncomparible to Pierce. When you buy a Pierce, you get what you want. When you buy a Rosenabuer, well your going foreign. Just like servicing a VW or Volvo, gets expensive and difficult. Around here with Atlantic, most of the time your Pierce is fixed within 24-48 hours if reasonable. just my opinion on Pierce and Rosenbauer.
