Dallas already has one Pierce apparatus, a HazMat unit that was bought with grant money that Pierce had the contract for.
Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport operates an all Pierce fleet.
I find it hard to believe about the switch to Pierce, especially since they've been using entirely Spartan under the various succession of companies for decades. But still entirely possible. Siddons-Martin, the Pierce dealer for Dallas, is an incredibly strong company and has made Texas predominately Pierce. Metro Fire, the Spartan dealer, is pretty strong in Texas as well.
I'm sure http://www.bensware.com/firetrucks/dfwfireapnews.php will have the news when it becomes available.
