Be safe.

Quite positive it wasnt bought like that. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Big Grin' /> Took a couple of years for the crack to form. Atleast it hasnt gone back to the factory. Oh yeah, back in the squrt. E1 is out, AGAIN! We have put more miles on it going back and forth to the shop than we have on calls.



I think its going to pass, they have had meetings with council. Actually trying for new E7 and L4 replacement.





Have you heard when Q31 is going in service?


TEXAS RIGS - Ladder 68 - 10-03-2009

L2 isn't that old is it? I was thinking is was only a year or so old... I heard E1 was being "problematic" to say the least...as much as it pains me to say this I think ya'll should stick with Pierce for the L4 replacement...ha ha



Q31 won't be in service for atleast another month as they have training scheduled at the end of October and are also still waiting on equipment.



Be safe.
