As my friend Feelgood said, there are things that Pierce simply doesn't do. Try to get them to build you a 3/16" aluminum body, give you a 20 year body warranty, or build an extruded body. Ain't happenin'. Pierce has three standard pumper body lengths, choose one.
My knowledge comes from factory visits, trade shows, manufacturer reps, and serving on 2 apparatus committees that have collectively specified & purchased about 40 rigs in the past 12 years.
I think there are fine rigs coming out of Appleton, but there are simply some things that other manufacturers are willing to do that Pierce isn't. Not a slam on Pierce, just a fact.
[/quote] Yup there are plenty of other fish in the sea that will do more for less
