New truck for Roberts Park FPD

Mar 22

Posted by Admin in Fire Department News, New Delivery | 17 Comments

From FireTruckMall.com:

2014 Spartan 100′ mid-mount platform  on a Gladiator chassis

With under 25,000 miles, this used truck has been very well taken care of.  This is a very new piece of apparatus, and rare on the used fire truck market today. With minimal time passed since it was produced, this vehicle will have many years remaining to serve at its next fire department!
