Craig, it was probably spec’ed and designed by guys who won’t have to pull hose off it. Ever. There are probably very few apparatuses that are designed with street level employee input anymore.

Poor hosebed design. Shouldve done more research

Love the Mars 888 light. A little old school isn’t always a bad thing.
