Episode Details

Baton Rouge is suing major fire truck makers like Ferrara, REV Group, and Oshkosh for allegedly colluding to inflate prices and restrict supply—forcing cities to overpay and wait years for life-saving equipment. The lawsuit accuses them of using a secret industry group, FAMA, to share pricing tactics and control production, leaving communities stuck with aging trucks and massive backlogs. With senators Warren and Banks pushing for a federal probe, this local battle has become a national spotlight on anti-competitive practices—and Baton Rouge is demanding refunds and fair play in the market.
