Hi Joel! The tiller was ordered from Pierce in May and the Bronto was ordered from E\-One around the month of March. The last I heard, it wasn't to be delivered for another 15 months or so.



The two new Pierce Arrow XT quints, however, should be delivered this fall.

It MIGHT be two tillers. The original bid included an option for a second tiller.
