Collapse Rescues

[raybrag]

Perhaps they don't dare use the term "FDNY" for fear of being sued??    ??? : ???

It is probably listed for LIC because maybe the dealer they are going through is in LIC

If I'm not mistaken, the dealer FDNY went thru in the past was Seagrave Sales & Service of South Plainfield NJ; I think that they relocated to East Brunswick, NJ.  No dealer in LIC.

I went back and look and they have actually changed the listing.  It no longer says Long Island City.

Progress update for unit #4019.  They are spray painting the rig:

It may be the lighting in the building but the red on these trucks looks a little different than on the other trucks FDNY has!  I would think they should have a standard color that is part of all of their specifications.

Unit 4019 is really coming along, and really beginning to look like a FDNY rig with the stripping.  Check it out at:

Check out 3981 at the same site.  Unit has been spray painted.

They look really great. I love those specialty compartments on the roof.  They make use of every bit of space and give great access to equipment.

R#3 collapse rig is now I/S. the top compartments are very shallow,only good for struts.

  This is what I hear regarding Collapse Rescue 5: They're trying to fit it out with all the tools because once they start putting tools on it's a pain to take things off to put them somewhere else.

what are they planning on doing with C3 old rig i heard they might dispose the trailer and keep the tractor around, i know the trailer is showing its signs of old age but wouldnt it be wise to keep it as a spare or backup??? i mean what do they use if one of the collapse rigs goes oos and especially if its going to be out for a long time.
