After close to 3 years of patiently, but eagerly waiting for the production of our new Pumper Tanker to begin, the wait is finally over! Over the past several weeks the New Engine 62-5 has been taking shape. Built from the ground up out at the Pierce Manufacturing Plants in Appleton, WS, members have been enjoying the inside look with production reports showing the latest process. We are happy to share with you the progress that has been made as the Cab, Chassis, Pump House, and Body come together from sheets of aluminum, steel frame rails, a maze of pipe, and miles of wire.

We want to thank our community for their continued support so we can provide them with the best services and equipment in their time of need!

Check back every few weeks as we publish additional updates on the New Engine 62-5's journey to completion.
