FDIC 2017

I wonder what the pricing range is with this truck. Considering it's a first to market kind of truck with relatively no competition, it's got to be up there.

It isn't the first to market.  Rosenbauer has had the Metz on the market for years that does much of what the new Pierce does.  Pierce slammed it for years, and is now basically building a similar concept.  Yes, I know there are a number of differences, but there are also similar design cues.

 

I would be very curious what kind of equipment load allowance there is on a single axle Ascendant bucket so you stay under GVW limits.

 

One thing I have heard is that the new Ascendant tower MOVES a lot (i.e. flex) more than a conventional bucket.
