RFRD liked a post in a topic by fs321c in Buckeye Valley rig update
Oh ok. BV used to have a second Uboat at old FS327 but that rig was sold a few years back.
I want to say U324's SVI is a 96. It originally served as a Heavy Rescue in Michigan City, IN.
Now, when U324's SVI goes down mechanical there is no spare. The 95 Dash will fill that role and the future plan is to send the SVI to be refurbed.
(All rigs are OOS in the pic except the Dodge)

Opps, I meant the U-boat.
But thanks for the report, I never make it that far west.

E326's current 07 Enforcer has not been refurbished yet. It might be sent for the same refurb that the one currently in Vegas at Firetrucks Unlimited is receiving but the decision has not been finalized. If it is sent to refurb it will be assigned to E328, sending E328's Saber into reserve.
The current situation on the Freightliners is as follows:
2000 FL80/EOne (formerly E328) is a spare
1999 FL80/EOne (formerly E326) has been removed from service due to frame cracks and mechanical deterioration. It will not return to service at BV.
1997 FL80/Pierce is still a spare
1997 FL80/Pierce was given an in house refurb and repainted into the black over red scheme. Currently a spare.

1995 Pierce Dash ex Haz Mat rig that's being converted to a Utility truck. It will serve as a backup for the Freightliner/ SVI currently assigned to U324.
E321's rig back from Firetrucks Unlimited and being outfitted with equipment. Should be in service by the end of March

fs321c liked a post in a topic by RFRD in Mesa Gateway Airport F-21 got a new Global Striker
They used to be referred to F208, F215, and F225. It got to be a lot and confusing. They wanted to be F1, F2, etc... but PHX already has that. So F21, F22, F23 for Gateway. F28, F29 for Falcon. Oh and AT20 is no more.
Luke ARFF assets are known regionally as F3611, F3612, F3613 but on base they're F11, F12, F13.
I do believe that if PHX ever puts an ARFF truck at DVT, it will be F36
Boeing (Mesa) ARFF assets aren't apart of the regional system.
ROCC at work.. LOL

Paramedic Life Support....so these units only have 1 paramedic. To be considered ALS in the valley trucks are supposed to have at least 2 paramedics of the 4 members.
I want to say that it's an NFPA recommendation as well, or at least will be coming up.

Some new(ish) rigs at Buckeye Valley.
1998 Pierce Saber formerly of Goodyear and refurbed at Firetrucks Unlimited.
2007 Pierce Enforcer rental rig from Odessa FD, TX.
2017 Dodge Type 6 built by BVFD Fleet. A unique feature on this rig is the patient care area in the rear. Will be used to extricate patients from off road accidents or wilderness emergencies.
