Pierce Dash CF

I really didn't care for the idea of the PUC or the CF until I got to put my hands on one. The CF seems perfect for the northeast low manpower career departments that there are far too many of. Spacious cab for the 2 or 3 guys that will be in the rig. Driver's seat felt very comfortable. With the new motors causing the doghouse to be bigger, and the bailout ropes we have to carry in our bunkers, it's getting tight in the driver and officer's seats. Especially in the Spartans. The wide open front row is nice. As far as the PUC, I'm not crazy about how low the plumbing is but the compartments are laid out nicely. Seems like a good set up for a rescue engine or one that carries a lot of truck tools. Seems like a terrible design for a place that runs a lot of fire duty like Bmore. Just my opinion.
