Thanks for putting that video on line. That is exactly what I am talking about. I really wonder why the LAFD chose the European Style Fire Engine as opposed to the Pierce Volterra? Beside the Pierce Volterra being a  Traditional American Style Fire Engine, the LAFD already had a contract with Pierce and Pierce has been a regular supplier to the LAFD so it seems kind of strange that the LAFD wouldn't just buy their "Electric" Fire Engine from Pierce?

How many 2000, 01 and 02 American La France's are left in front line service I haven't heard of any replacements at 1, 20 or 21 that have one of those from that period as there front line?

If memory serves correct, there's still a few of them: 1, 9, 20, 21, 37, 50, 74, and 94.

37 and 94 got new Pierce's recently and 9 has had a reserve for over 2 years since there pierce truck was burned in a fire 2 years ago. I wonder are they ever going to fix 9s truck or not?

What about E10 and 35 and the flash pattern on the light bar of the new RAs suck lol. Y’all should reprogram them.

E10,35,83,88 are all close to being put into service, that flash pattern is above my pay grade :)

The Pierce that Engine 42 is in is a reserve. Their frontline KME once belonged to Engine 95.

Is the KME out of service or being phased out of the fleet?
