Miami-Dade has awarded (7) Commander pumper's that are scheduled for build this month, they will have a much lower hose bed than we have traditionally specced with a 1 1/2" booster line in the rear compt. 750 tank 1500 gpm, Commander cab with extended rear portion of cab, they look to be pretty sharp hopefully will see the first one this august with add on's for maybe (7) more. Apopka is a suburb of Orlando in Seminole county a bedroom community basically,  they may run some 2 & 3 man engine's but they respond the 2 man paramedic rig with them on most all alarm's as they are attached to the engine complimenting the engine as a 5 or 4 man company, that is how most smaller dept's. here fla. make do.
