  MABAS 21 – You’d be surprised how many builders paint their bodies on the frame. I personally don’t like the method of painting on the body but those are typically the brands that don’t have the highest quality.

  Mike, it may have air ride suspension and the air bags are just deflated.

  Is it me or does it look like the rear is already sagging.

  Compared to the larger apparatus manufacturers, Rosenbauer definitely has a unique way of assembly. Most prepaint the bodies prior to installing them to the chassis. I am not sure if there is an advantage to this or not.
