I have nothing on this little GMC pumper, which I believe is collector owned. Is this even a PA truck?

An older KME Renegade, Engine 1312 from New Columbus, PA. This one seems familiar, like maybe someone else had it first, but I can't place it.

They purchased it new, but if I'm not mistaken, this engine or one very similar to it was used in some of KME's advertising in the mid-1990s.

Again, thanks to all who have pitched in with additional information.



On Monday (26th), I started the trip back to Georgia. I left early, as I had planned to make a few stops along the way. My first stop was Winchester, VA, where I hoped to get apparatus at all four companies. I arrived at Rouss first, only to find out that the Pierce 75' rearmount was in Hagerstown getting it's annual ladder test done. The other rearmount was at the training center. I got directions and headed off. When I got there, I found one rig from each company, but they were all jammed in pretty tight and there was no one available to jockey them around for me. I got the best shots I could and moved on.



From there I went to the Millwood Station FD.
