I heard a nasty rumor yesterday. Maybe I can get some confirmation: Gilbert is going r_d? I can't even spell it out, say it ain't so. Lol.

It was brought by someone in their testing process that knows some people over there. Said they order 3 red trucks and 2 red ambos. I don't know if he said as a jab at me, but he didn't say he was joking so figured I'd ask.

   I see what I can find out , 2 Quantum engines were already ordered and the specs were White w/blue striping, I'm pretty sure the 2 replacement rigs, the rig  for station 259 & 2 ambulances (Horton's or Braun's, I would guess) haven't been ordered yet. but if your going to change the color, It's good start with 5 new rigs & 2 Ambulance coming. It's taking Chandler forever to change the fleet to red , Also Mesa's new CRV201 should be delivered soon.

Yeah, I just saw the minute entry that they ordered 2 pierces. Didn't see any specs. Didn't see the ambos either. Nothing on Hughes site yet

Oops 9,500 sqft, next property is the SE Station 414 Also they had the developer relocate Box Canyon Station 416 site south, closer to Hunt Highway so 416's will be able cover more of QC

Any word what LA 18 is using for responses in Phoenix?

They are currently in an engine (ALF).  Originally supposed to be in an LT or ST vehicle.

  •  

This is my list, mind you my list is comprised of trucks i've seen in person. 

  • E15 - 531037
  • E20 - 531040
  • E23 - 531038
  • E27 - 531019
  • E33 - 531018
  • E34 - 531017
  • E37 - 531029
  • E40 - 531052
  • E58 - 531020
  • E918 - 531073
  • E930 - 531039

E905 I've seen a photo of. I can't confirm 31 or 54. 

 

Still nothing heard about E58 getting the Rosenbauer. The guys know nothing, resource knows nothing, the BC for that area knows nothing. Everyone we've asked laughed and said no. Maybe the district is getting one and storing it? Believe the contract Laveen has with Phoenix says that Phenox will provide everything, including apparatus. 

 

Rescues I have, 

R3, R7, R13, R25, R43.
