Tampa (FL) Fire Rescue's Truck 13 and Rescue 13 (spare) responding from their quarters. Also heard are Tampa Police Department cruisers responding from the next door TPD district to an officer-involved shooting nearby.
I hate to see this get replaced, its a beautiful truck. Did it go into reserve status at least? I don't like Quantums, I don't know why they're so popular.
HAZMAT FireGuy After almost 20 years in the busiest truck in the city, replacement was necessary. It is now in reserve, yes. I have not yet met a member of TFR that does not speak very highly of the Quantum chassis. They may be expensive but Pierce seems to deliver a product worth the cost.
Oh wow, didn't realize that it was that old. As for the Quantum, if it serves the department well then that's what matters most, I just never liked the way they look. Other than that I am a big Pierce fan. I like the Impel/Velocity chassis.
