Mike Sanders and I were recently discussing why the brand-new E\-One is at the Pierce dealer? <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Pierce Velocity demo with 100' aluminum aerial and no pump or tank which is somewhat of an oddity.Note how the marker lights are on the inside of the cab.

I was told they did not like E-1's EMS cabinet so they were having one from Pierce installed in it when it comes in.

See numerous detailed photos of Hershey's new tower in a featured gallery at www.firewagonphoto.com -- Pierce job number for this unit is 19507.

Nice to see Hershey going with a better color then their white & yellow apparatus they had for a long while.

Nice Tower.

[mussels]

Nice shot Terry - Hershey just placed in service a new Seagrave pumper last year - any particular reason they had Pierce do the rebuild and not Seagrave?

[dawson_fire]

From what I was told from a good source was that both Seagrave and Pierce bid on the truck and Pierce had less exceptions to the contract and therefore won the bid.
