From the Fire Service, Inc. Facebook page:
Fire Service, Inc. congratulates Chief Gary Krienitz and the Aurora Fire Department on the recent delivery of their latest Wheeled Coach Type 1 Ford F450 4×4 ambulance. This is the 8th Wheeled Coach Type I purchased by Aurora, finalizing the conversion of the entire AFD front line EMS fleet. The consistency of their custom interior design is enhanced with the Stryker Power Load system, and the conversion of the interior cabinetry to be CN-10 compliant. The IMMI Per4Max restraints offer fully retractable straps without sacrificing comfort and restriction. With the patented Cool Bar HVAC system and Whelen LED interior and exterior lighting and warning systems, Aurora remains prepared to offer their community consistent and safe EMS transportation for all missions. We are thankful that the City of Aurora places their trust in Fire Service, Inc for their EMS and fire apparatus needs. We remain committed to Aurora and all of our Fire Service, Inc. current and future family members.

Mike, Aurora never had an Engine 2 only Truck 2,6, and 11. All the fire companies are squentially numbered from when they were put in service for the most part. Department could be expanding from rumors to add more companies and fire houses.

Good to see the dept replacing with new apparatus and ems units. Would anyone know if Aurora ever had an Eng 2 or 6 or 11. I was in the area last year and drove over to new E7 quarters but they must have been out on a call. Nice looking station. Too bad you cant listen in on a scanner.
