New To Westchester Co. ESU This Year

 
This is brought up EVERY parade season.  The answers never change, and neither does the inadequate level of response.

Thanks. I gave Ed May the foundation for it, he brought it to life. And added several different features to it, If you know Ed there is always hidden features and a hidden story to his work.

Crews worked to remove both front doors. The drivers legs were pinned under the dash, so the Holmatro spreaders and chains were used for a dash roll. 
 
*Side note; VGFD responded to this incident with minimum manpower. R480 had a chauffeur, officer and 2 firefighters, while E479 responded with a chauffeur, officer and 1 firefighter. Car-3 was on scene in command. Members had the victim extricated within 16 minutes. 
I was not at this incident, but I am proud of my VGFD brothers on a job well done.

There's some guy's that do up Their Suv's almost as good as a fire Chief 's unit over by us in NJ what ever happened to just a tear drop light on the dash lol

Fair Lawn Heavy Rescue ordered a Spartan Rescue 1 Rescue to replace Rescue 1 Will be their 3rd unit built by Rescue 1 Cliffside park has a replacement for Engine 5 on next years capital budget Pierce I believe 

That's some big bucks for a new Rescue Are they getting all new tools for it?

Fairview FD has taken delivery of a 2017 Ford Interceptor SUV. It is assigned to Car 2122.
 

I know communities operate differently. Having said that, in my area many cities have money for capital and equipment purchases separate from money for staff. So even if cities are having staffing issues capital projects, including vehicle purchases, still take place. I do agree though that a million seems excessive for a rescue. My Dept just got a 2016 rosenbauer commander rescue pumper with new jaws for $550,000.

Latest on  New Fort Lee Rescue Chassis was delivered & Body was placed on to the chassis this past Monday Truck committee was down at Rescue 1 plant Tuesday to view progress  Sorry guy's no pictures they are for committee members  I was told  ; ( have to wait til sometime in August it see the real thing It's going to be something quite different then the  present Rescue  Rumored to be going to wildwood this year too

Here's pictures of the rear.
 
 

 
That sums all of this up in a nutshell!

 Straight streams will illustrate if all items were installed correctly and what has to be revisited by dealer
