both are identical Pierce Velocity pumpers, 515 hp Diesels, 1500 gallons/min pumping power, and 750 gallon tanks. We are still getting a ton of new “toys” for them, but they r pretty nice. I am getting trained on the pump operations, and the pump panel is all operated by touch screen. It’s nice, but considering we keep these things around for at least 15 years, I dont really see them lasting that long without having problems. I’ll try and get a pic of the pump panel with the touch screen net time I’m up there, its pretty neat.

all of out trucks are Peirces. We started with 2 1992 Pierce lance series pumpers, had great luck with them, got a 3rd one in 96, and then got a heavy rescue and a SkyArm ladder from them. Been working for us, and honestly the 2 '92s we had didnt even really need to be replaced, we bought them because “we could” lol.

the only thing i dont really like is the american flag painted on the grill. I think it looks kinda tacky, and it doesnt match the other trucks.

nope. I dont fix them just use them for their intended purpose. I have my EMT, CEVO Certification, I’m taking Pump Operations now only because they are offering it to us to learn the new trucks, and I am taking the Firefighter 1 Boot Camp over the summer.

I have been for a while.

yeah we’ve always had Pierces so thats what they went with again. I forget what the local affiliate we r go through is though, Churchville or something like that it think, but anyway we have been sending them back and forth to there to get brackets put on for equipment and all kinds of minor details.

You should send a thank you to every asshole who’s cried about getting a ticket in Amherst because they’re one of the big reasons Amherst can afford nice thing. 😉
