That's an awesome engine! I thought they'd replace Engine 107 along with 106 too

The first two Pierce Engine;s after the KME debacle 105 and 106 were bought at the same time, E107 was I think 2-3 years after, Though due to the budget crisis caused by the pandemic they might delay replacing E107.

Makes sense! Hopefully, departments all over can recover financially from this pandemic...

What was the issue with KME?

KME= Keep Mechanic Employed.  Actually, KME has become better rigs in the last decade.

Engine 105 responded to a traffic accident with occupants trapped and one car on fire, E105 would not go into pump resulting in a fatality
