People do seem to focus on Streetlites more than anything else though, every type of bus I've driven has had bad and good examples. Look at Citaros 5337/5338 are absolutely awful to spend 4 hours on due to the rattles on them, but get 5336, or 5358 I ended up with on Rail Replacement a few weeks ago and they're really nice to drive. Buses are hand built vehicles that lead a tough life, and it just makes them all so variable that it isn't always just down to whether they're made by Wrightbus, ADL, or even Mercedes-Benz.

Good job you had 5358... If you had 5359, you'd have taken back everything you've ever said about 5337/38!
