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.

So is E326 not black over red because it is a rental? The brush truck is very cool!

The 2007 Enforcer has not been refurbished yet. If the truck works out it will be purchased and sent for refurb at Firetrucks Unlimited when Engine 321's 2006 HME/Ahrens-Fox rig returns toward the end of the year. At that time it will be repainted.

BVFD just purchased a second 2007 Pierce Enforcer from Firetrucks Unlimited (Odessa FD E2). The current plan is for this rig to become a reserve unit and the 2007 Pierce Enforcer currently assigned to E326 will be sent for full refurb at FTU, then back to E326.

E321's 2006 HME is currently at FTU being refurbed and is slated to return to E321 when complete.

The former Goodyear 1998 Pierce Saber is in service at E328. E328's former rig (2000 FL80/EOne) has been assigned as a reserve unit.

The 1999 FL80/EOne pumper formerly assigned to E326 has been retired from service and is awaiting its fate.
