This from Dennis McGuire, Jr:
Here are the newest rigs for Cal Park. The engine is X-Plainfield, Ind. The SUV was a service vehicle at Brindlee Mountain Fire Apparatus where they bought the two E-Ones. A 75′ quint is due this month then the tower ladder is going. It has been sold to a oil company near Las Vegas, NV.Dennis

Thanks for the info. Maybe the truck was too expensive to maintain and they saw better use in buying two used apparatus. Making the Engine/quint jump companies? Anyone know anything about buying used?

I don’t know whow thought selling a brand new rig for 3 used trucks was a great idea? That expedition is over 10 years old they could have bought a newer one probably much cheaper

Based on the trucks (engine, quint and suv) coming from Brindlee, I’m guessing the quint is used also
