[quote name='GA_Dave' post='305704' date='May 16 2009, 11:06 ']I saw this one nearing completion when I was at Pierce last month. I was also told the same thing, that it is the last Lance to be built, but I must clarify something. It will be the last Lance built NEW. This doesn't mean that Lance cabs won't be utilized at the refurb facility. The Lance cab was discontinued due to the 2007 engine emissions requirements. Pierce purchased enough pre-2007 engines that production of the Lance and Dash continued until now. (There were a couple Dash rigs being built, but they are very near the end also) If a rig comes into the refurb shop that has a pre-2007 engine, a Lance cab could be used in the refurb process.[/quote]
