“Last evening the villagebvoard unanimously approved the purchase of a new Pierce Ascendent quint.  This apparatus will replace the 25-year-old quint taken out of service at this time last year. This piece of equipment will last 20-25 years.”
 
The 107’ single-axle Ascendant quint will have an Enforcer cab & chassis with a 1500-GPM PUC pump.    12-24 months for delivery.
 
Stickney’s previous truck, the 1997 Spartan/3D/LTI was sold to a private collector out of Missouri.
