Agreed, this is another suburban Chicago department that went away from Pierce. However over the last 20 years they have had Seagrave, E-One, Pierce and now Rosenbauer. I am sure like all departments they must have put out bids, I am surprised Rosenbauer came back as the most affordable for two rigs. I wonder if and when they are going to replace their 22 year old HME tanker?
They did get a tax increase approved a year or so ago. My guess the money for these rigs is coming from that increase.
Maybe the next new rig they will purchase will be the tanker.

I’m not surprised Bartlett didn’t opt for the P brand this time…
