  • Out with the crappy seagraves and in with the stylin Spartan gladators !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ferrara does in fact put some JUNK out there. We have a 2005 pumper and its been full of problems since it left the factory. Even had problems on the way home. And their warranty people SUCK!!!!! Charlie Grimes is the person in charge of that. They promise they'll send service techs to fix and they never show up. I have the email correspondence to prove it. Instead we had to get it fixed ourselves and pay for all the screw ups. NEVER AGAIN. Sorry for FDNY.

  • Is there another rig that goes with this rig as a back-up like extra crew and stuff.

  • Were you jumping on a trampoline while filming this?

  • That is a spartan gladiator chassis, and as january 2011 all 5 rescue companys will have ferrara rigs by 2012 and they are also producing the new ladder trucks and a few of the high pressure pumpers,seagrave lost the fleet contract the city has had nothin but trouble with the seagraves. i got the info from a few guys i know on rescue 1 and by one of the rescue batt chiefs.

  • @cdffirefighter yes this is a spartan gladiator chassis, but ferrara built the box

  • One of the few FDNY trucks with a full lightbar!

  • Rescue 3 is no longer the collapse and trench Rescue?

  • gotta learn how to zoom out buddy

  • learn to control your camera...but nice catch

  • What vehicles do they keep in the fire house and what vehicles do they keep in the yard across the street? Do they keep the collapse unit and decon shower truck in there?

  • What is a collapse rescue?

  • @Hickmaann90

    They have added tools and training the standard rescue unit wouldn't have. Res1cue is trained for everything, but specializes in nothing, where as Collapse Res5cue is trained in depth for only one thing. More so now because of 9/11.

  • if you go to Ferrara's website u can see all the new fdny rigs being built

  • thefundingfighters.weebly.

  • Not too often you find a full size lightbar in the FDNY.

  • Ninne1010: actually the collapse rescues are all not kept with the 5 Rescue Co's. Rescues 1,2, and 4 do not share quarters with a collapse rescue like Rescues 3 and 5 do.

  • Each rescue company has their own collapse rig. It is the same company that just has more tools.

  • probably the only Spartan in FDNY, i LOVE it, looks great!

  • what does this truck do please answer

  • @MegaAndrewn Its just a support truck with wood and saws to stabilize any clasped buildings and stuff of that nature

  • @TheMaster592 oh cool

  • Ferrara wtf sooooo sad Seagrave all the way wtf r they thinkin go from cadillac to fucking to hoopty wtf is this world coming to nice truck tho

  • is rescue 5 and collapse rescue 5 the same company??

  • I know he does

  • you suck at taking videos

  • The Body and chassis Spartan. Notice at the top of the grille, there is a sideways diamond. That just happens to be where the Spartan logo goes.

    Here are 2 links to photos. First is a shot I took, of a Spartan Gladiator. Second is a photo someone else took, which is a Ferarra. Notice the complete difference. Copy and paste the links, as youtube wont let me post.

  • Check out Ferrara's Website and thier New Deliveries section, FDNY recieved quite a few new Rigs from Ferrara. Yes Ferrara is building ne RM's for FDNY. They are also in the works of 4 door ambulances on a Dodge Chassis. NYPD also recieved a new Ferrara.

  • FERRARA LADDERS- Just say no!

    Great video, thanks for posting!

  • WHOA WHOA WHOA. Beautifulllll

  • thats not a ferrara its a SPARTAN?!?!?!? gladiator from custom fire app.

  • @CHINKZRTHECOOLEST the chassies are by spartan but the body is built by ferrara

  • @CHINKZRTHECOOLEST ha. you can even see the ferrara logo @ 0:51!

  • i wish FDNY woulda stuck to segraves and pierces.

  • FDNY Adds 10 More Ferrara Aerial Ladders

    Holden, LA The Fire Department of New York City has added another ten aerial ladders to its contract with Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc. Ferrara, Americas premier custom fire apparatus manufacturer, announced the initial ten aerial ladders in December of 2009. Coupled with the multi-unit heavy rescue project, Ferrara Fire Apparatus now has contracts with the City of New York totaling more than $24 million.

  • Yea, I also read that FDNY put in an order for an x amount of ladders and engines by Ferrara Fire Apparatus.

  • So wen does the switch to ferrea take place? have they already been ordered?

  • Ferrara has been putting out FDNYs special units for years-for example, the original high pressure pumpers, collapse rescues, satellites.

  • @superbuff861 i heard the new ladders will be Ferrara too

  • no they are not all the new ladders engines are seagraves

  • @fdnylover i heard that the bid for the new rearmounts went to Ferrara but with all the budget cuts i dont know

  • ya your right i just found out ferrara won the bid for the ladders but the engines are seagraves

  • @mercurygrandmarquis1 Yes the rearmounts went to Ferrara and the engines are still at segrave

  • @mercurygrandmarquis1 Seagrave im sure will be going out of service. FDNY Switched to Ferrara because they are cheaper. Sure, some of the NEW trucks are Seagrave, but they will no longer continue to buy them.

  • @301whitehall fdny will stick to seagrave there is only one reason seagrave lost the bid, bottom they fucked up the bid. ferrara will have the rm ladders and the rescues, seagrave doesnt want the rescues anyway. many bids coming up watch and see who gets them. seagrave will

  • @mercurygrandmarquis1 yes, all of FDNY's rescues are now Ferrara's, along with 20 rear-mount aeriels, and more to come

  • @fdnylover FDNY is buying all new Rescues and 20 new ladders from Ferrara.

  • @fdnylover sry but this is incorrect my brother works in truck 3 they are all Ferrara

  • @mercurygrandmarquis1 , I believe they are Seagraves. If you look at their site, they've been putting out quite a few FDNY lately.

  • I can't believe they are switching to ferrara! :(

  • @turbolaser92 sorry to say but seagrave sucks they fall apart to quickley and pierce is great for the volies my dept got 3 but for the city rescue one is a pos always oss ive seen it out in (firematic pierce dealier for major repairs shop) several times this year already... ferrara is the best out there they build great stuff they went low on the bid so they can get the contract !.
