There's always been something about Seattle's trucks that have kept me on the fence, but these new Arrow XTs are 1,000 times better than those excuse for fire truck E\-One Quests!
Trav!

Looks like some very purpose built hose lays.
Can you explain what each one is for?

Quote:.Looks good except why would you design the end of the supply line to hide part of the arrow stick.

Any idea what the purpose of the square cut out is on the officers side to the rear of the hose bed?

Here is the locally designed manifold that's always deployed connected to the supply line.

Here is a shot of the new rescue sitting in a shadow behind station 14. It's still not in service, at least as of the beginning of this week.

I like the solid front wheels MUCH better than I like those with holes in them. Odd, that they use different styles though, I've always wondered who decides that stuff.

My guess: it's probably a heavier front axle than generally used, forcing a change to the solid-style wheel.
