Port Arthur FD New Industrial / Municipal E-6

3 posts in this topic

One of 2 of Port Arthurs new industrial pumpers. E-6, finally got to nab some pics just a while ago while clearing up from a med call. They purchased 2 identical (E-1, being the other) industrial pumpers that they utilize for both residential and industrial. $775,000 a piece. Funny lil fact, there are 3 roads in town that they can't turn down lol. They are just a tad shorter than their 100' platform.

Nice looking rig and nice shots. One cant help but wonder... If they had gone with a side mounted pump panel would that have given them the shorter wheelbase to turn down those three roads you said they cant fit down? Not making a dig at them just wondering. Again, nice shots.

I'm not sure what the thought process was with the set up. I'm not 100% if Pierce does a side mount pump panel for industrial. I'm also surprised the pics turned out that well lol took them with my phone : P They are very nice rigs though. Pierce is the dominating manufacturer here, a few other dept have some brand new trucks also. Nederland I believe still holds the title of the shortest PUC Pierce has built. I'm gonna try to get more pics of local dept's though.
