Orion vs Designline

[St Louis Car 09 22]

Back in 2007 I have the pleasure of riding the prototype design line bus from New Zeland and I had to admit it was a very smooth quiet bus,despite the airport buslike interior.I wiki the current(MTA) bus roster and it showed an option order for 90 designline buses.Orion on the other hand seem to be the prime manufacturer for hybrids.Is designline trying to make a name here in the states through the(MTA). And to everyone who is the better Manufacturer? Oh and to answer that question for myself,I prefer Orion;).

+1. I watched a vid of this bus operating in Ireland. Who knows, it might become the next default for every now and then contracts. (Just how there's Orion, MCI and New Flyer)
