Dozens of cities and counties in Pa. and elsewhere sue fire truck makers over soaring costs, delivery delays

Dozens of cities, counties, and fire departments across the nation are suing fire truck manufacturers over skyrocketing costs, alleged anti-trust conspiracies, and years-long delivery delays. The lawsuits were rolled up into a trio of antitrust class action lawsuits in a Wisconsin district court against REV Group Inc., Oshkosh Corporation, and Rosenbauer Group. Fire engine prices have nearly doubled since 2020, raising concerns among departments that struggle to maintain operational capacity.
