HA! that bad huh! yea those explorers have bad trans problems, every year of them, I have a 2001 explorer and when I bought it when I was still in tech shool I ran a search on it and there is a technical service bullitan right from ford themselves about it. luckiy I had a ford service program in my school run by ford trained techs and they checked it out and said that car was one of the best they have seen in a while, and they did not just say that because it had the all famous 5.0L and not that crappy 4.0L six banger!

So then is their any chance that 2082, the 2001 explorer could go to E.M.S. as the duty car or are they just going to put it out to bid?

greenville, thats not canada!? sullivan county, now thats canada!

are they gonna wreck it or just have it fixed? does anyone know how bad it was damaged?

How many boats or marine units does the Thornwood fire department run? Someone told me they had 2, one hard bottom boat and one soft bottom boat. Do they still have these in service, just courious, thanks in advance, steve.

To anyone from west point or even knows the answer to my question, I was up in west point today helping my dad deliver bread to the commissary across from the W.P.F.D station 2 and saw an empty green hummer just sittin in the fire house parking lot. I didn't think much of it untilI saw the same type of vehicle at station 3. Does anybody know how many of these hummers they run? I know they have 2 hummers with skids in the back of them but how many empty ones do they have that is the question? Any info. will be GREATLY apprieciated, thank you for your time, steve.

Is the banksville fire department on there own or are they run firematicly/finacially by the greenwich FD? It has always been a mystery to me, thanks in advance, steve.

so in other words banksville fire is kind of like plattekill fire. plattekill runs half district in ulster and half in the town of newburgh, but they are still their own entity. they get funding from both counties and who ever lives in their fire taxing district their tax dollars go to the plattekill fire district. and I guess that is similar to the way banksville is set up except with 2 states instead of 2 counties.

so then who owns all of banksvilles rigs, firehouse, equipment,etc, banksville fire district or greenwich fire district?

mbendel36 ya hit the nail on the head they are their own seperate entity that is what i was looking for.

so is banksville its own seperate fire district or are they apart of the greenwich fire department? the reason I ask is because if they are numbered station 7 is that for radio call signal only or are they an actual part of the greenwich fire department?

Does anyone know what the rhinebeck fire department runs as far as engines, ladder trucks, ambulances, boats, brush trucks, antiques and chiefs vehicles go? Any info. will be greatly apprieciated, thanks, steve. I tried to go on their website but it does seem to be a little outdated and I know they got a few new apparatus so I am trying to get an update on what they have.

thanks guys for all your input I got all the info and now know what they got.

Why shoudln't tankers have lights and sirens, they are emergency vehicles. In a rural area 4000 gals. are vital and should be able to tell vehicles it is coming up on to get the out of the way. If a driver is not smart enough to figure out what he is driving and what he can and cannot do with it he should not be a driver, plain and simple.

Did they get rid of the 19-7-2 already because you cannot go to it on their website? They should keep it as a scuba truck and get rid of that trailer.

I see that the town of newburgh ambulance corps recently purchased 2 new ambulances and cornwall's old fly car. These can be seen on there website, www.tonvac.org on vehicles page, on 2008 new fleet link. my question is where did the 2 old ambulances and old ford expedition fly car go, (if anywhere) now that these 3 vehicles are now in service? I asked this question on another site but no one replyed so I figured this would be the next best place to go seeing as how there is an orange/rockland page. thank you for your time, steve.

wow whats going to tow that.

oh o.k. I saw it on the website. looks good, good luck with it.

Does anyone know if elmsfords new U-86 is on the way, here or what? Im courious to know because I have not herd anything about it in a while and the original thread was closed regarding this topic so I had to start a new thread (sorry to anyone I angered by doing that). on a side note we just bought a new brush truck with that same ford F-550 chasis with the V-8 powerjoke. Just kidding I like fords (just not the diesel engines they put in them, nothing like a 7.3L)

For the Greenville members on here I have 2 questions. First, is the department keeping R-29 after the new squad 15 goes into service? I have heard a couple of rumors that it was staying and some that it was going to be sold. Second is, did the department replace 2154, the 1999 Chevy Tahoe chiefs vehicle that was sold not to long ago or are you guys down to 2 cars? Thank you for your time, any info is appreciated, Steve.

How many antiques does peekskill fire have and are they company, department or privatley owned? Thanks in advance, steve.

thanks guys for all your info and yes it did answer all my questions.

what do you want to know about it? PM me if I dont get everything. it is a 2007 seagrave it has a 1500 GPM pump 2500 gallon tank I dont know if it has foam or not I think a 10 or 8 man cab. if you want to know more my father works with someone who is in cornwall so I can get good accurate info.

So hold on, before all this happened they had 2 boats, the one that was stolen and the new zodiac? am I correct? what would happen if you did not get this one back from the scumbag that took it, get a new one to replace it?

So the cataract hose company will own it, thats cool my fire company bought back our 1964 mack B model pumper back in 1996 from a farmer that had it out in westtown NY and have since had it restored and all fixed up (except the pump, but were workin' on it). I know TR54 had the same feeling my fire company had, we were all happy to see one of OUR trucks roll back into town never to leave again, to be ours forever.
