Terry[/quote] For some reason Glen Dales' rigs always peaked my interest. Maybe it's the Black over Yellow paint scheme. It looks pretty neat.

Terry[/quote] Just you wait, somebody at the Pierce marketing dept might design a new advertisement for this "Super PUC".

Damn Tim, I love the York County PUC. Would have loved to see one of those with a Velocity or Arrow XT chassis but damn nice rig. I think I saw on the Singer website that they are calling it the Mega PUC? Damn can you imagine how one of those would look on a Dash chassis.....I miss the Dash. Oh, my next trip to DC will be Oct 3 - 12, I will let you know as it gets closer.

DCFDTech,
the 70 Mack Mid-Mount that we sold to Boonsboro is now in James Island SC. They ran it front line for awhile and it is now a reserve. It is still painted our colors of black/gold/white. Hopefully when they retire it she will come back to Riverdale! Chad

Terry[/quote] That would be something to see but my favorite is still the Dash.

The Aberdeen Proving Ground is running this 2008 Pierce Arrow 1500/500(?) 105'- job# 20378. This is not an XT model but rather the older model which I suspect has the drive line from their old Pierce Arrow in the new truck.

Terry[/quote] From a far distance it appears to be a new truck with the new grill, raised roof and the body having fresh paint. Interesting refurb Pierce did here.

Terry[/quote] Terry; Are you sure of the job number? 20378 is assigned to a Saber Long Body Pumper for Jacinto, TX. JFong; It is a new rig, EXCEPT for the Engine and Transmission. Those items where taken from an older rig and reused. Tim
