I would hate to pull up with civilians at windows and fire venting. Then while one man makes a stretch, the second man having to grab the ladders in a high shoulder carry due to the ladder compartment height. Sometimes it might not be bad at the tail board but the further you pull them out the harder it gets to maintain control in full turnout gear with an SCBA on your back. One of my firemen is only 5'4" he probably could not reach them. I do like the Peoria Engine just rear hose and ladders are a little bit high. Thanks for sharing.
