Can anyone on the board offer reviews - good, bad or indifferent about the Pierce Ascendant?

 

Thanks in Advance!!

 

The following are rigs that I got pics of at Pump Primers 2016 in Harrisburg, PA, but was unable to get complete specs for.  Hopefully some of you can help me out!!

 

I know nothing about the following rig.  I thought it was Union Hose of Annville, PA's old rig but I was wrong.  Can anyone give me any specs on this?

Good evening everyone.

 

I've browsed around this site for a while and know that there are many knowledgeable members on this board. I have 22+ years in a volly Engine Co. in NNJ. My company has a committee formed to spec a new engine and proposed a new idea to the membership. Since 1985 our first due piece has been a top-mount pumper.  Due to the NFPA standards about LDH near the pump operator the committee came up with the idea to have a side mount pump with a rear mounted, electronic pump panel (in the rear most compt. on the drivers side).

 

This has stirred quite the debate within the company. The logic for the committee is that they want a 5" discharge on both sides of the apparatus. Due to the NFPA standards, age of some members climbing up and down and scene visibility they feel this is the better option. I could not find any statistics that favor one or the other but I did find plenty of statistics showing rear end collisions. Does such a statistic exist?

 

Im not against a conventional side mount but am I wrong in thinking that the rear pump panel is a horrible idea? Am I being "that guy" and thinking that we should stick with what we have because it works for us? Please let me know pros/cons.

 

Thanks everyone!

06/15/16 Southington, CT - An early evening fire tore through a vacant commercial building shortly after six p.m. Firefighters found heavy smoke showing from a one and two story ordinary constructed building. A interior attack was attempted, but firefighters were unable to make headway. An exterior operation was initiated using one tower and multiple hand lines to darken down the fire. The cause of the fire is unknown and being investigated. There were no injuries.
