Any other details??

What stage of replacement- out to bid, planning, in contract?

WHOA! You mean to tell me you got a rig in and put it in service the same day?!

How well is everyone trained on it prior to responding with it?

I hope you guys didn't rush into it.

By the way, good luck with it, GK makes great rigs as I am sure you know already, being the proud owners of 3? now.

are u going to post any pics of the new rig?

Most of the guys who would take it on calls spent several hours with Craig and went over it extensively, so I don't forsee any problems there. As far as pix, I sent some in but I'm not sure how well they will come out I'll get more in the next few days. Gowans Knight does take a lot of pride in what they build, for sure. This vehicle has a 20 and separate 40 gallon foam tanks with an electric pump to feed directly from either tank. (it'll deliver 2 different kinds of foam depending on fire type). I must say this stuff has come one hell of a long way compared to what we had when I joined 4 decades+ ago!

i hope the new engine looks and operates amazingly. A lot of hard work went in to it.
