I’m curious as to what these solar panels are powering? Is the thought with EMS being on the street solar power into and inverter so the truck doesn’t have to idle?

Fat fingers and lack of spell check on this one, thanks for the correction.

Just found the spec sheets, 200” wheel base and 38’ 7” from ladder tip to back of truck.

At this point the size of tillers vs the size of these metros seam like they are probabaly just as easily driven around.

I’m a huge fan of the Gettin Salty series, by far one of the best episodes they’ve ever had. Learned tons about the squads.

Noticed the engine had one as well.

I’d say you have to remember the weight difference. I’m not FDNY but my 95’ tower ladder is just about 81,000lbs. Unsure id want to be doing 75mph in that.

51 just got their first new engine since their Ford/E-One in 1985.

It’s not as noticeable but seeing Engine 74 in person, it’s corner lights look the same, this is the photo I had seen posted to the story.

Yes, sorry, fixed my post.
