I decided to cruise down to FD HQ and see the new Smeal parked out on the lot and get some over the fencers! Thank God for telephoto lenses! This thing is BEAST!!! These are just like our 125' Spartan Gladiator/Smeal Aerials but with a Spartan Gladiator: Evolution Chassis and cab. Also, sporting the Black over red with white ladder... I only wish the ladder were black too... But, I was blown away! Ican't wait 'til the shop gets a hold of it so I can tool around on it and Really photograph it! Another thing is that it is numbered for H&L 5 which I am pretty sure that is gonna be H&L 15's new designation! I think it is going along with which district they are in. Can't wait for the next one! Should be a NEW H&L company! I think every district except for 3 is gonna have their own H&L. H&L 4 is so close to districts 3 and 4 they can cover both.[/quote]
Great looking rig, but that rear overhang is absolutely huge! It reminds me of those Mack MC/LTI mid-mounts that Toronto runs/ran...
