Unless 23's rig is covered in an overly excessive amount of diamond plate, gold leaf and has the bell, it aint worth lookin at.

And you say this because?

It’s gotta be considered tradition at this point, I wouldn’t want to see them switch it up and rock a regular rig. Love the personality

rules can break the biggest traditions in the world

My guess is the 23 will be switching the graphics but not adding diamond plates ...atleast not while the warranty is vallid

Some companies do them immediately, some wait abit of time. Graphics are usually done in the firehouse so whatever the cost is they got to save up for in addition. (Rear Mudflap Graphics, other decals on the rig). I don't see why they wouldn't get it.

My dept allowed some customization on the rigs, but the numbers were off limits due to being visible from a distance for the command post to be able to see.

Caught Earlier today. Engine 1 Just installed a Q Siren on their 2023 Seagrave! Sounds Great & most importantly gets people out of the way!

What’s wrong with 24s truck, they have been in a spare for awhile?

Not sure, but it is a Ferrara so it isn't shocking to see it out for so long. I think if I remember correctly the chauffer saying it’ll be out for a good amount of time.

“Keeping Mechanics Employed” won’t see those rigs as spares…

E-52 had accident when a car cut in front of rig. Otherwise that rig has been in service most of the time, this is definitely not a rig that would keep the mechanics employed. Damage wasn’t bad guess they are backlogged on parts for repairs.
