<img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Terry, thanx for being a good sport!!! Actually, "class" is in session all the time here on Firepics, thanks to Al Powell, Bruce Anderson, among many others. Most of the apparatus threads have something educational, and as Bill Cosby said "be careful or you might just learn something"! I'm afraid the new Pierces just make me fondly remember the early 80's Pierce Arrow or even a 70's Ford C-cab...

[dawson_fire]

No problem! I agree that school is always in session and I had never seen one of these trucks so I posted what I knew and that was not very much and now I know.I also agree that some of the older trucks have more character than any of the newer ones will ever have. With that being said I'm late for class...
