L-169

[FDNYSTATENISLAND]

L-169 received a new Ferrera RM. didn?t think they were due for a new rig, their old rig was a 2011. when did this happen? I do think they were in a spare RM for a while, perhaps their 2011 was a lemon so they replaced it finally?

Then they changed their rims to alloy. Why?

Either the shops did it. 
Or
Company pride

169 truck did not get a new rig. Their rig came back from the shops after being out for months.  The shops installed chrome rims and a rumbler.

a few years ago they changed to the aluminum rims on all the 2010 ish tower ladders, maybe because a weight issue? ...

for quick reference at a glance, the newer batches of ferrara rearmounts  have different warning lights  and windows on the rear doors similar to the KME pumpers.

are they going to change all the older ferraras rims now  ?

Anyone know why there rig was down for so long?
