I want to say the height is 10'9". Weight 53,800lbs.

We have Two 200' 1 3/4 preconnects and One 200' 2 1/2 preconnect. All triple flat loaded. The diamond plate tranverse compartment houses 2 backboards. The nice thing about the PUCs, the preconnects are on removable trays, the hose is loaded off the truck and the tray placed back in. I have more detailed compartments shots if anybody would like to see the setup.

Three forward facing SCBA seats.

   



The three forward facing seats allowed us room to store our EMS bag and engineers gear. The slide compartments up top have c-collars, headblocks, gloves and spare traffic vests.

Just realized I didnt grab a pic of the rear officers side compartment. The compartment space on this truck really makes it look bare.

Top shelf: Box has chains and come-a-longs, porta-power spreaders

Bottom Shelf: Old set of Holmatro Rescue tools. (2 new sets on order with Core Technology, 1 for each pumper)
