Good for some of the narrow streets in Baltimore.
I think a major difference between the presentation fo US fire trucks and (at least Central) European ones is that when the producer hands them over it's always already fully equipped, which then makes such presentation based more on the technical equipment than e.g. lights or sirens
Make sure you use high pressure 5" to feed it. We have the same set up on our aerial, and if feeding a fog nozzle you will be pretty close to test pressure on supply line. Nice looking truck!
It maybe big, but you can take it anywhere you can take an engine!
Very nice truck, Pierce always does a great job.
Nice rig, well thought out.
It denotes that every rig in Baltimore City has an EMT on board.
This guy started out as one of the nicest guys you ever want to meet...........
Why all the dots though
@@Modelo646 I had extra and wanted to use them before they went bad
I am getting ladder 49 vibes from this
Tillers are awsome
Yeah that is an awesome piece of apparatus
Nice tiller
C zzx
Good morning Baltimore City fire Departement Ronny City of Königs Wusterhausen germany.
GREAT MANUFACTURER FIRE TRUCK!!! #BCFD
Nice I love it
Pierce should sell the front independent suspension to Kenworth and peterbilt.
Only thing I would have changed was the 5" connection to the pipe. I'd have put a 15 degree elbow on there facing down to reduce the stress on the 5" hose hooking in that high up and straight in. Minor detail.
Crazy to think this truck is now probably a reserve.
It is a nice rig
Engine 4 and Truck 29 lifer!!!!
how do you custom order these, its incredible
Nice good
Aren't these the one that live at AES
BPD needs some new garages for trucks.
First tiller on 2007 was Truck 10, 12, 16
and 18 Truck
Why does it say "Emergency Medical Services" on the side of the stick??
Because all their members are a least EMT's if not paramedics and they respond to medical calls as well as fire and accident runs.
Scott Bryan I am a FF/paramedic myself. Just found it unusual to see that anywhere but on an ambulance, especially on a ladder truck.
happyjack880 somebody's idea I am sure. Is it necessary on the side of the ladder, no.
happyjack880 because bcfd firefighters are also emt. Due to the outrageously high amount of "medic calls" we get. They will send a engine or truck depending on availability first until a ambo gets there.
if you've never operated a federal q in an ice storm youd realize that to be very true.the federal q on my truck actually froze while responding to an accident and we had to utilize the electronic siren.most military fire apparatus don't have federal qs equipped for that reason.the fed q is just traditional.
Nice trucks, wish there were more tillers around my area.
about the siren,, LIARS :p They dont have two in case one goes out. Fire Departments just like to utilize both which is perfectly fine. dont make excuses, just say Americans are deaf and dumb and dont like to move over. Then cry when its their house or their mother that the FD has to respond to and not there in 5 seconds.
I can tell you for sure that this Tiller would not fit in any place where we fit an Engine in, even 100ft Aerials which are bsed on a way shorter truck and have all-wheel steering don't always manage to get into the sidestreets of the almost 2000 year old historic city center
can that be detached from the truck like a 18 wheeler
No. Not without specialized tools.
we can make them
NEW Tillers was T6, T20, T23 & T29
Did T25 get a new rig? They moved from E44 to E21 so I assumed that it had to do with space in the firehouse. E21 used to have a tiller many years ago T9 when I was assigned to E44.
Why are those wheels so small. I wish all fire engines used wheels and suspensions as used on airport crash tenders.
sheeeshhhh
toughest streets? try Chicago!
Hope this doesn't sound too crazy but since this truck is called a tiller, so what is the difference between this and the machine u use in in your back yard or wherever to dig up dirt, a rototiller, if tiller means DIG UP or maybe something similer, what does this fire truk Dig up???????
Andrew Silva you could look up the word tiller in the dictionary before asking a silly question!
CDs
Real tillers are made by SEAGRAVE !!!
Pierce are a copy cat off Seageave
