Way to go Ben Brown and Legacy Fire. The mid mount is similar to Blue Islands truck and both towns have numerous viaducts to contend with. Sutphens are battle ships and quick delivery doesn’t hurt either. Good luck to Cicero going forward.

I’m guessing the current sutphens are holding up well since they’re buying 2 more. The only reason the tiller isn’t a sutphen was because they’re buying couldn’t get the length reduced for it to fit into the firehouse. So minus the seagrave tiller, the entire fleet will be sutphen by the end of 2025.

I’m guessing that these were destined for another department originally with he quick turnaround, or were they demos?

RJ, I believe this will be replacing Truck 1, the Dash CF. Cicero has a Seagrave tiller on order to replace their Eone tiller, Truck 2.
