Philly's procurement office would not accept a vehicle from a defunct manufacturer so the dealer was stuck with it.
So did they accept any of them?

Guest

Most of them have been in service for over a year. I think they are posted here somewhere.
Any idea what truck company this rig is headed to?
Anyone have an idea what DC has on order for truck companies? I have heard there are at least 2 Spartan tillers, the Philly LTC aerial, possibly a used aerial or two and now at least one seagrvae tiller.

Guest

(4) Spartan ERV tillers and the ALF are the only ones I've heard of so far.
Thanks! DickH posted a link to a photo of T17 at Seagrave under construction, maybe a refurb/major repair? 

Guest

T17 is a 2012. Warranty work
Here is said link, credit to Dick H

That picture probably 12 years old. That is their 2003 truck which is long gone into the reserve fleet.

Guest

The ALF is going to T5

Guest

Any word on how long till the Spartan ERV tillers show up?
do they still have the Pierce tiller that they rebuilt

IF your talking about the Pierce/Hahn last I heard it was in storage o/o/s, someone closer to the department could probably tell you better.

I saw it a couple months ago at the Atlantic Pierce Shop in Manasas VA.

No, it's still being customized and should be in sometime in March. I'll try to get some updated pics this week.
