Posted June 11, 2016 Just heard from a friend of mine who works at the shops. LAFD an their next bid for apparatus is going back to Pierce. KME's are C**p. Really, back to Pierce?

What is/were the issues with the KME? mr.ranger likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 11, 2016 (edited) Pierce was the lowest bidder, only other bidder was KME. 7 triple combination engines awarded in the first order. Edited June 11, 2016 by Seagrave7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
