Thanks Alex.

 

It's a sharp looking color scheme.

Guys from Orlando were headed to SVI last week for pre-build of the new rescue. I had to take some photos of the current rig for them to use out there. The new rig is going to be a monster! Also, new Woods 14 has arrived. Just a small diamond plate body on the rear from photos I saw. It's currently kept at their shops. Will be in service in a couple months after drivers training is complete.

Yes it is!

 

Is Miami Dade going with Rosenbauer still or are they back on with Pierce?   Either way I love the grey top!!!

 

Thanks 

Johnny

ltjohnny,

 

MDFR has 31 Rosenbauer Commanders on order, E12 will get the first one currently in production.

[Juice]

Are you kidding me? Not to be so negative, but I HATE the Commanders with a passion. This will quickly change my opinion of MDFR's trucks, I've liked them up to this point. Besides, why have 1 Quantum with this paint scheme and then switch the entire rest of the fleet?

 

Trav!

The Pierce Quantums are refurbs with new cabs. They received at least 2.

Hillsborough County has been getting a steady stream of new rigs, in a new scheme of black over lime. 

 

Quints 9, 12, and 39 (coming) look to be E\-One Typhoon industrial pumpers (or high volume anyway) with 50' Telebooms. These replace regular engines and are a first for HCFR. 

 

Engines 6 and 32 seem to have rescue-style Typhoon pumpers with added compartments, and just this weekend a friend who works for HCFR sent me a picture of the new Engine 1, which also looks high-volume (foam, maybe?), but no teleboom. Station 1 covers industrial parts of South-Central unincorporated County.

 

Truck 6 got a new E\-One tower not too long ago, in old white over lime, and several new ambulances are in the works at Horton, a switch from International to Freightliner cabs. I heard HCFR may be switching again to Kenworth ambo chassis, but I can't remember where I heard that chatter. 

 

The HCFR page on Facebook is good about covering these things.

Thats a long truck..

Miami-Dade should receive the first of (31) new Rosenbauer/Commander pumpers in the new color scheme, rigs will be back to traditional side mounted pump-panal and at the last minute the rigs where all upgraded to the chrome grills with square headlights

all the bells/whistles aluminum wheels other upgrades, should see the first sometime in aug. with (5) per month starting in sept./oct. 

Also expecting (20) new Freightliner/Braun medic rigs also in the new silver over lime  with upgrades as well (extended cab) sometime this july/aug.

Alex, after examining photos of Engine 9's previous rig, this rig, E1, looks like the old E9 with the Snozzle boom removed and repainted into the new livery.

[Guest]

Joe, that makes sense.  When we were there in late March, it was headed up to E\-One to have the boom removed and eventually be returned to the fleet as an engine.

They're going away from the Spartan Furion chassis on the medic units?
