Thats my neighboring department. Is this the only shot you grabbed of it?

This is going along with their 2010 and 2012 Velocity Quints. Both of which can be seen in the 2013 Pierce Calender.

There were alot of nice rigs being built there. I searched high and low for the cab and chasis to match a metallic black body and pump housing but I couldn't locate it. I saw a utility vehicle in the parking lot from Mount Horeb. Anyone know if they are purchasing a Pierce? The job number was like 25820 so it's been there awhile.

One wonders.  With a different chief now maybe they went away from Custom Fire.

Thank you for the kind words! Almost two years worth of planning have gone into it. We are excited to see the work turn into a reality.

Yes, they are, I'm not sure what chassis, but I was sent a text message the other day that they have placed an order through Pierce.

 

Trav!

Are they getting a new ladder?



Appleton trip April 24 - Juice - 04-02-2013

I'm actually trying to find out right now, I deleted the message that I got, so I'm attempting to get all of the information again.

 

Trav!




Appleton trip April 24 - ACPD227 - 04-02-2013

They are a true Custom Fire User but Id say they would use Pierce for a new Tower though.




Appleton trip April 24 - chief60 - 04-02-2013

The body I saw appeared to be an engine or engine/tanker. Couldn't find a chassis though.




Appleton trip April 24 - Juice - 04-02-2013

Peterbilt Engine, I just confirmed to make sure

 

Trav!




Appleton trip April 24 - ACPD227 - 04-02-2013

I take it they are replacing "pete"




Appleton trip April 24 - Juice - 04-02-2013

Not sure to be honest, I'm trying to get more information, but for the sake of this thread, I wanted to confirm that they had actually placed an order "officially" and what it was (engine, tower, etc.) If and when I get more information, I will be sure to post it here!

 

Trav!

I should get to "play" with that in the next week or two when I take pictures for the dealer. Looking forward to it.
