  I believe the term is split-tilt. I believe the Arrow XT replaced the Arrow, or upgraded it. I don’t believe anything replaced the Lance/Lance II/Lance 2000, I think it was just discontinued due to the EPA changes back in ~2006/07

  The lance was a mid-cab tilt ( can’t recall proper term, but only front half of cab , behind front seats, raises). I have seen pierce do that with the arrow xt, but it was special order.

  I know that the LANCE is long gone but isn’t the ARROW XT the same cab or at least the basic shell/platform?

  Looks great. Hard to believe that PIERCE is still building that same design cab after 30 plus years.
