One of the neighboring depts has a nice 3000 gal pumper tanker from them. I'd like to have one from them as well but I don't think we can swing one that new.
We'd love to have the 5th one down on this page. Right paint scheme and everything but that's probably a 180K-200K dollar truck to.

We were looking at one from Osco Tank in Illinois but I received an email saying the one we were looking at sold we are kinda back to square 1. There just isn't anything good out there used that is a few years old. If it is they either want alot or it goes really quick.

Give them a call and talk to them i know they had some really good deals and financing like 2% interest. Or they may know who is looking at new ones with an old one to get rid of.

I'm probably going to jinx us but has anyone else been rather slow this year with calls? Seems like the whole county has been.

Slow??.. Fires seem to just keep getting bigger here. We just had the biggest fire in the history of our county a few weeks ago.

See where mini pumpers are making a comeback? What was once old is now new again.
As dry as it was here, we didn't get in on many fires... A good thing IMO.
