Private contract fire equipment

[BHFire13]

I honestly would love to see more COE brush trucks in service in the states, I always hear guys saying pickup truck chassis for the shorter wheelbase but most i've seen are almost on par with a 7600 IH wheelbase which beggs the question? Arent brush trucks sopossed to be small to excess small areas? Why does it seem over the years they are as big as type 1 engine now ? Are the current COE chassis offered in the states now too underpowered for wildland work ?
