Taking orders in August for the 1923 Chicago Water Tower 3 and Boston E-One Ladders 4 and 29 to pair with the engines.

Love the water tower, but the budget won't allow for it.

I'd love to see either a Pierce or KME LAFD or a KME LACoFd, but I don't think there's much chance of that.

Yes...Something from the west coast please! I am in NO WAY bashing FR, but it's like Code-3 all over again...FDNY, Chicago, Boston...rinse and repeat
I understand how their process works but I can't believe there isn't a single department out here that doesn't have something in production??

A Type III wildland engine would be nice. Or two!!

I agree with the last 2 statements. A LAFD or San Diego engine would do well. Plus a Ventura Type 3 would definitely fine a home here.

Yes! And what Rich said too.. Maybe a CalFire Type 3?
Rich might know if this is right, but I think LAFD or LACoFD (Maybe both) got into a trademark/royalty issue with Code-3 that precluded them doing more of those departments?
