Ashburn's 1996 Pierce Lance rescue engine is in need of replacement, and the decision was made to modify Quint 6 in the previous post to carry extrication equipment for automobile accidents. That work was recently completed by Ferrara.
Quint 6 is now "Truck 6", and a variety of modifications were made to the truck:
-pump and tank removed
-added two 500 watt lights to the ladder tip area - now a total of four for a total of 2000 watts
-added scene lights along the body and compartments on top
-2 roll up doors to carry extrication equipment where numerous tools can be operated at once
-upgraded generator to 15kw
-added winch on the front
-added storage compartment on front bumper for chains, etc.
Those are the highlights....SOP's are being created on the "new" Truck 6
