Made this video, did a Walkaround of the foam tender since theirs not to many of the unit itself out there. Unsure how much longer this rig will be around. Enjoy!
 
That rigs been out of service since mid 2020, I’m surprised they haven’t trashed it yet.
Yeah, real shame it'll be gone soon. Only 8700 miles, 2019 it was sent to the shops to get extensive work done to repair things to it. Walking around it their was just about 0 visible rust in comparison to an early 2000s Seagrave Pumper spare although I understand those saw more work, but heard those had metal material defects.
 
Is the rig outdated or could it still serve a purpose?
I don’t think it’s used too much, primarily because I don’t think the FDNY does much in the way of foam operations anymore, at least not one that would require anymore than a regular foam truck (I.e FM-167) can carry.
 
Silly question . . . it's sitting there; but is there anything in it (i.e foam concentrate)? :unsure:
 
12/14 Rig is no longer there not sure what's happened to it, temporarily replaced by the Super pumper.
