This from Shaun Unell:

We are near the end of the work on our KME tanker being refurbished by Alexis Fire Equipment.

• We added on a pre-connected Class A foam system.
• Converted the officers side upper compartments to hinge upward instead of down for better access.
• Switched to our new paint scheme of black over ted and new black striping.
• Updated all warning lighting to LED.
• Installed a new Zico ladder rack which has an extended travel distance.
• Installed a new pump heat shield and replaced some damaged parts like a cab step.
• Completed mechanical repairs and suspension repairs.
• We are having hose troughs installed on both sides of the pump panel and a few final repairs are being completed.

We hope to take delivery of the rig in the next several weeks.  Final graphics will be completed at our station.
