The TWO 75′ quints are reserve to Ferrara engines.

I believe Glenside still has their 75′ quint. TWO as a matter of fact.

@Evan, Addison isn’t entirely E-One anyway, they have E-One, Pierce and Crimson

Another suburb buying into one of the biggest farces going…the 75′ quint. Chiefs and salesmen convince people that you’re getting an engine and truck together for a fraction of the price of both. The “engine” part can’t carry a decent amount of hose. The “truck” portion carries a ladder that comes up short on suburban set backs. Overall the vehicle can’t carry the weight of truck and engine tools. All this without mentioning that it’s only staffed with 3. How are 3 guys gonna do engine and truck work? Glenside (where Addison’s chief came from) got rid of their 75′ quints as soon as he left.

Looking foward to seeing it! Any reason why they went with Pierce, instead of another E-One?
