  I don’t think the front suction has been deleted. I don’t think it’s been piped in yet.

  Josh you’re right that they made some changes on these, I didn’t notice it at 1st but they are different than the previous batch. There’s the rear compartment added and also it looks to me like the hose bed was way taller on the previous three rigs, this one has also a diamond plate panel added on the top of the right side of the hose bed (over the ladder). Looks like they also eliminated the large intake on the front bumper.

  These engines even have chevron bumpers just like the squads!

  How many Engines are being built? It looks like there is another Chicago body in front of the one in the picture.

  Notice how they changed the spec’s on these rigs compared to the last E-One Order. The “Body” now looks more like the previous Spartan Crimsons. They brought back the rear compartment as well. Also the Heavy Duty front bumpers now have Chevrons instead of the white reflective stripe
