That's a good looking Pierce!
Most people don't realize that those are 4x4 vehicles...we see alot of them out here, most are on a shorter wheelbase.
Cool how they've kept the old Federal Signal mechanical siren (passenger side front bumper)

It looks to be a right stout piece of equipment. I don't know a lot about fire trucks so.

The Pierce is actually on an International chassis drivetrain...super solid machines.
I figured that *if* I ever came into a pile of money, I'd buy an IH crewcab short frame 4x, and make it my huntin' and fishin' rig!

Sounds good to me mate! When are we taking off? Are you allowed to hunt with a MG42?

Sure...and you can man the '42 and I'll use the Mk108 for the "close in" shots...Sounds good to me mate! When are we taking off? Are you allowed to hunt with a MG42?
Heck, with a well aimed HE shot from the "Air Hammer", there's no guttin' or skinnin'...it'll be ready to eat in little bite-sized peices
Also time to post some more from my collection!

I see what you mean by shorter chassis in the E-556 shot.
