  1. ok, think I got everything but U-45 U-46 and U-54 what type of vehicle are they?
  2. what is E-75, U-45, U-46, U-54, and I know they must have an antique or 2 and I also wonder if they have a boat.
  3. I know that harriman NY is a far trip from westchester but I think many of you would be interested in knowing that monroe, harriman and woodbury are all having a triple wetdown. for monroe a new spartan/smeal pumper, woodbury a new spartan/ smeal pumper and for harriman a new freightliner rescue truck. for anyone who is interested in going by themselves or even if a department wants to come, all are invited. it will be at mary harriman park, if anyone is interested in going you can pm me for directions. we hope to have this event huge so if any department wants to come, you are welcome
  4. im sorry I completly for got to give the time and date. it is august the 23rd 1pm to 6pm
  5. so is the old R-29 going to be sold or are they keeping it?
  6. thanks, it is a good site for info. please keep it on
  7. thats cool, but why do they have to get rid of the mack, another good one, another good one.
  8. It went somewhere over seas but I know they sold it and it is gone, never to return. on a side note they HATED that truck
  9. You know this is just like anything else, it looks great but this is a new vehicle they have to get all the bugs worked out of it first for it to be "great". It is equal to an F-550 or chevrolet/GMC 4500 or 5500 so it is nothing new on the market. Im in a diesel tech school right now so I hear all the gossip and all the stories first hand and even though everyone LOVES dodges they still cannot hold up to what a ford or GM product can hold up to. one resource is read consumer reports, the dodge 1500 gets one of the worst ratings out of all the full sized pick ups. And the transmissions are a whole nother story, I have seen truck-tug-of-wars where the dodge transmissions just blew apart. yes the cummins part is good (the new 6.7l not the 5.9l) but that is about the only thing good about a dodge pick up and I wont even think about a dodge gasser . I'll give you ford cars are crap but the trucks are second to none, the 7.3l turbo diesel from 1996 to 2003 was a flawless engine (I am looking for one right now) and the only reason ford trucks might have gotten a bad rap is because of the 6.0l (2003 to 2007) I dont like that engine and will not touch it with a 10 foot pole but I still think that this 6.4 will bring them back into the lead. Alot of you who work in or around ambulances might think that ford is bad because the 6.0l in vans had the worst problems of all. And the new duramax is an extremly strong engine, much better than the old 6.5l detroits they used in the '90's. Those can also pack a hard punch. FORD and GM are still the best work trucks around and will be for a very long time.
  10. what will be the demise of the old cars
  11. I would hope they did fly with those big 5.7, 350's in 'em! why GM did away with that engine I will never know cant kill those 350's
  12. Im sorry to any chrysler fans but, they really went down the tubes when they bought ALF.
  13. I have a question for verplank. what are you replacing now that the new E-ONE is on its way and how many chiefs cars do you have 2 or 3? Thank you for your time steve.
  14. Does chappaqua F.D. still have M.A. 4, the 1980 dodge/pierce mini-pumper or did they replace it or just get rid of it? Also how many chiefs cars do they have 4 or 5? Thank you for your time, steve.
  15. pierce lance four door 1750/1000/100, 10 man cab, detroit series 60 12.7l 470hp, white over red with gold leaf lettering and red LED lights 1000 feet 5'' hose (cotton), 35' extension ladder(on ladder rack of course), 3 cross lays, 1 2 1/2'' 2 1 3/4''.
  16. It has always been a mystery to me as to what the E.F.F.D runs as far as chiefs cars, engines, tankers, ladder trucks, brush trucks, ambulances, fire police units, antiques, boats, and other utility units. I know they have a whole lot but what exactly do they have and what is going to be retired being they got a couple new vehicle lately. I do understand that this is a westchester based operation but I know for a fact their are E.F.F.D. members on here so if they read this spill the info. any info will be apprieciated, thanks in advance steve.

  18. thanks for everything guys
  19. O.K. I think you guys summed it up for me but what makes/models is the heavy rescue, the squad support truck,the 2 district vans, the 2 fire police vans and the 1 investigation van? and are all the pumpers on custom or commercial cabs?
