Rosenbauer Minnesota Trip - February 2013

[Roto-Ray]

I would figure they would have a set of the Chicago Squads ready for Fire Rescue International which returns to Chicago in August.

 

Considering that they were doing their pre-con meetings in late February, that would be a pretty aggressive delivery time for any rig, but pretty much unrealistic in this case for a couple of reasons:

• The backlog of building the 500+ chassis that were already ahead of the Chicago order.
  
• The fact that they'll probably run into some engineering and construction issues as they build these prototype rigs (as any manufacturer would).
  

 

I'm cautiously optimistic that we'll see our new rig in November, and our pre-con meetings were going on at the same time as CFD's.
