  5. Well said! The moral of the story is every department has there own thoughts and opinions on how to welcome in a new piece of apparatus whether its wetting it down,pushing the apparatus into the firehouse,champagne bottle over the bumper or even calling it a wetdown with no water.. Ive been to all kindsof events regarding a new rig and i always had a good time..
  6. I attended a wetdown in Westchester county (wont mention the department) a couple years back a (water wetdown no less) when the guest department showed up lights and sirens blaring started flowing water, the host department proceeded back to there rig(s) and started flowing water back at the guest department.. There were handlines, deckguns, sirens, plenty of water and it turned out there were no problems at all.. When the water was all done both departments shook hands the guest department congratulating the host department with there new rig and the night continued.... Aside the fact, from that event, everything was great the food, entertainment, the members of the hosting department were extremely nice they gave us a tour of there firehouse and new rig. I could understand straight streams being a problem yes and maybe excessive siren use but it really comes down to the individual and whether he uses common judgement or not..
  7. Ive been going for so long to wetdowns all over the place and ive never witnessed anything to do with water and electricity.. Can it happened? Ofcourse it can! Dont you think if it was such an issue that departments wouldnt host them??

  20. I dont understand why they cant make the truck look different then the Ford pick up trucks that are out now.. The front and probably the back look exactly the same or similar. If its a different name it should have a different style.. (my .02)
  21. Rombout either has taken delivery of a new Supthen engine or will be soon.. It replaces 62-12 and if you look on there facebook page there's pics of the old rig in its new home Midway Tennessee.
