It will be a sharp looking engine! I am sure it will last 20 years! 1000 gallon tank, 2000 GPM pump and a light ? tower! Awesome!

This is a no nonsense engine! Nice features, yet simple! This is the type of engine that will last 20 years if well cared for.
Congrats Coal City!

Same reason why any number of depts. switched. Perhaps they wanted a rig that is built to last. Since they will likely keep it more than 10 years, it seems to be a good fit. Sounds like it will be an interesting but attractive rig.

Big motor and 2,000 gallon pump. This is a sweet spec! Why did they not continue their relationship with Pierce?

It will definitely look sharp when finished. I don’t believe that I have ever seen a solid orange Seagrave. I am going to assume that it will have the black reflective stripping to match the rest of the fleet. Will the roll-up cabinet doors be painted also?

That’s going to be a striking rig
