All these comments for these articles are killing me... I work as a firefighter and get the same pushback from my coworkers UNTIL they actually drive one of my cars, and then they get it. The ignorance and spreading of misinformation is embarrassing. The parking lots at our stations are 80% big diesel trucks so it's going to be a long time before you get buy in from the fire service. Rosenbauer has a nice start here but I actually believe hybrids will be better suited for the fire service at the current time in technology.
