The arched front of the cab/windshield resembles a CFD Autocar squad and the body resembles a Gerstenslager rescue body.

I agree about it having a retro type look.

Looks very nice! I agree calling it Squad 5 may get a little confusing but I am sure it will serve them well. What kind of equipment will it carry? Extrication? Water rescue?

cmk420 because Chicago version like this is 5a so it should not matter I would think

This is absolutely incredible looking. That first picture makes it look retro looking.

Nice rig. So what’s gonna become of the old SS3?

Looks great; any idea of the significance of calling it Squad 5, when CFD already has a Squad 5? Could potentially get a little confusing.

Nice Job Corey and Chief K! Looks great! Can’t get away from Squad 5 though? 🙂

Good looking rig, always love seeing snorkels. Probably one of the longer front bumpers I’ve ever seen, good thing they put the guide posts on it

What are plans for running? Same as former? I believe it was due to in town fires and on a few mutual aide box cards.
