So far this

Engine 3, is a 1999 Pierce Dash 2000. It has a 1,250 GPM Waterous top
mount pump, 430 horse Detroit Diesel Engine, and a Six Man cab with five
SCBA ready seats. Also the ladder storage and pike pole storage are all
in the rear of the truck, which gives us high sides on each side offering
plenty of storage. Photograph coming soon.
