I don’t know why PIERCE came up with that TAK4 It was trouble from the start. Darn right they should have stayed with SEAGRAVE but they probably didn’t want to spend that much. Live and learn and we’ll see what happens.

The TAK4 suspension will break before long it’s not a good design for rough city streets. They should have stayed with Seagrave

Not an IMPEL fan but that really looks sharp and no nonsense. Nice to see some apparatus with darker colors(no white) once in a while.

I’m sure the TAK-4 will hold up well with all those potholes in Cicero.
