From Hastings Engine 44 Facebook page. I believe it is going to be a Spartan ERV as that is what the dealer named sells.

On March 3, the village board of trustees approved a resolution awarding the bid for our new apparatus to Hendrickson Fire Rescue Equipment. This new rig, scheduled to be completed in about a year's time, will replace our current 1991 Pierce. Thank you to our members who served on the rig committee and spent many hours putting together the specifications for the new apparatus!

Why are they selling that?

[Spartan052 43]

I do not know for sure, but I assume it is the age of the unit?

is there something to replace it or is the tri village solely relying on montrose for a ladder

[Westfield12 65]

Well, it's only a 2001, so it really isn't that old.

From what I heard so far, Verplanck is looking to purchase a new tower ladder in the near future. Apparently, the articulating platform they currently have, did not suit their district as well as they had hoped.

Well, it's only a 2001, so it really isn't that old.

that's all relative.

Their are a number of fleet management concepts that show apparatus should be sold before they are 10 years old. This is because of maintenance costs, parts availability and resale value.

Also, NFPA recommends all apparatus at 15 years old undergo a safety upgrade. This rig is 14.

Some of the safety features that might not have been available in 2001:

Sized Seatbelts

Seatbelt monitoring

Anti lock breaks

Automatic Traction control

Stability control

Roll over testing

Airbags

Thiells FD (Rockland County)

2015 Spartan, 1000 Gallon Tankers, 8 man cab.

Thiells FD (Rockland County)

2015 Spartan, 1000 Gallon Tankers, 8 man cab.

Call it what ever you want, but at only 1,000 gallons and no side or rear dump valves and no direct tank fills in the rear and NFPA says that's an engine.

^ what he said.

And who these days can put eight butts in seats. Why have that many? Use the space for stuff.
