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.

I'd love to see some more detailed pics of the compartments if you have them...

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.
Starting with the 1st compartment on the engineers side.
Pump panel
Top shelf: Nozzles, Flue Bombs
Middle Shelf: 2 nozzles, scene tape, light tower control
Bottom shelf: Adaptors
Middle Compartment:
Front side: 2 dry wall hooks
Back side: Lock out kit, Foam eductor, cellar nozzle
4 spare SCBA bottles
Rear engineers side compartment:
Top Shelf: K12 and Cutters Edge saws
Bottom: Electric and Gas Fans (Gas on order)
Rear End
Top: 10ft attic ladder
Bottom: 24ft extension, Roof ladder
Officers Side:
Compartment 1 :
Hand tools, extension cord, step ladder
Top shelf: Portable flood light, utility rope
Middle Shelf: RIT Bag
Bottom shelf: Cones, DeWalt Kit, Cooler
Middle Officers side compartment:
Top Shelf: PR Bag, Jumper Cables, tool bags
Bottom Shelf: Salvage Covers, pokey stick for exit signs and emergency lights during inspections
SCBA Compartments: 2 spare SCBA Bottles, 1 Water Extinguisher, 1 Dry Chem extinguisher
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)
Here is the truck that was replaced. This truck was packed full, the new truck has the same amount of equipment on board.
1994
Pierce Arrow
1250/500
*sold to former Valley Park chief Brignole, will be inservice at the Peel, Arkansas Fire Department. Chief Brignole purchased this truck new in 1994 and once again 17 years later. Picture taken in 2007.
