Since you brought them up, here is picture of most of the BVFD Pumper Committee. They are not very pretty, but they did a nice job with the new wagon that included all of the "new" requirements for MCFRS pumpers.

I recently spoke with the FESCO Rep he stated they took the Elite pumper to SD and basically took it apart!
He stated there will be a few changes from the original Elite Pumper........He said to expect the Prototype here in about 6 weeks and shortly after that expect 8 Pumpers every 2 months!!
It is a real shame Tommy probably won't be here to see any of them <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
By the way Congratulations BVille!!!! That is one georgeous Wagon!!

Yeah I know that it was set up to replace the E1 Squad, but looking at the cab I thought that the county did the specs off your rig.

I wouldn't go that far, good looking...ok, Georgeous <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> It WOULD look Georgeous with OUT a rasied roof.
A large part of my collection was purchased from a GOOD man, John Floyd. I give him FULL credit on his work, although I may miss something. Thanks John. Also Scott Mattson, Warren Jenkins, Michael Schwartzberg, and Mike Sanders. Thanks Guys.
