Here's some specs- Long version: [url="http://targheefire.com/sites/default/files/Tacoma%20Final%20Specifications.pdf"]http://targheefire.c...cifications.pdf[/url] Short version: 2000/500/30a/cafs. Specs had the pump capacity at 1500, but just saw a video where it's listed at 2000.
I don't know what companies that this group of three in the above specs was assigned to, but E1, 4, 8, 10, and 15 all operate similar if not identical apparatus.

My understanding is that the first batch of three went to 1, 4, and 10. I work in downtown Tacoma so I see 1 and 4 running around in their rigs all the time, as both companies run the wheels off of their engines. I believe all of the 1996 rigs they replaced had over 175,000 miles on them. At least one had over 200,000 miles.
Then the second batch of 2 went to 8 and 15. 3 will get the transport engine. 6 got a Roadrunner, Rosenbauer's version of the telesqurt. 2 more Roadrunners are on order, which will likely go to 11 and 13 (which currently operate late 90's telesqurt-type engines). I also remember reading on H&W's Facebook page that Tacoma had placed an order for a Spartan ERV engine. Not sure what the status of that is with the city's current major budget problems.
