Definitely a problem around the country. 2 examples in my area:

White Haven's primary engine went down while operating at a structure fire today. They have been waiting over 2 years for a Pierce.

Plains Township's primary engine for Station 2 went down on a mechanical a few weeks ago and they are borrowing Nanticoke City's spare. They have been waiting over 3 years for a Pierce.

Isn't 152 a 95' footer?
 
Dumb question #578:

Seagrave supplies most of FDNY's apparatus now. In the distant past (think 1920s - 1930s) they supplied some, (especially Model 66 TDAs with the waterfall grille) but certainly not all, and not the majority. But my question is: Did FDNY ever buy a single Sweetheart grille (1935-1951) or a single Anniversary series (1951-1970) Seagrave?
