It was originally a Wathers unit (I think one of a pair) that originally was purchased by the Columbia (SC) Metropolitan Airport. This one was refurbed by CRS and served Columbia a while longer before being acquired by Florence. The other twin was acquired by the Columbia FD and was long ago disposed of. This unit was relegated to reserve duty in the last year or two when Florence acquired another former CAE truck. It is a red Oshkosh T-1500 (I think) which is also a twin. Florence's other front-line piece is a mid-'80's commercial (Chevy, i think) E\-One that they acquired new.

Last for now, but certainly not least is this ARFF rig. Micah gave me a heads up on this one, so I gotta give him credit for the find! I have zero specs, because this was taken with a telephoto lens through a chain-link fence. No way to get back in to where it was parked. It was obviously second-hand to Florence AP, but I'm not sure from where...
