Middletown had starting specing out a new rescue-pumper and wanted a Quantum to match the rest of their frontline fleet. They were made aware of this rig and saw that it was close to what they wanted. Rathing than going new, they opted to save by purchasing the slightly used rig in 2008 and sent it back to Pierce for modifications and to be repainted.[/quote]
