pretty QUINT!!!!!!!!

[1and1is4]

Quint my ass. Thats a full on Tower you moron.

[scabbyal]

Looks like it has a pump to me so that would make it a quint jackass.

[1and1is4]

Every ladder truck with a waterway has a pump dumbass. What makes that truck NOT a quint, is the fact that it has less than a 500 gallon tank. Quints have a 75 foot stick FYI. Like I said, thats a full fledged Tower. Not a quint.

STRAIGHT OUT OF THE NFPA GUIDEBOOK

A quint, or quintuple combination pumper, is a fire service apparatus that serves the dual purpose of an engine and a ladder truck. The name quint is derived from the Latin prefix quinque-, meaning five, and refers to the five functions that a quint provides: pump, water tank, fire hose, aerial device, and ground ladders.

Doesn't say anything about on board water or aerial height now does it smartie pants???

[dandoosh90]

If it was a quint it would have visible hoses

[MRavens2008]

@dandoosh90 look at the hoses right above the pump panel.....

[MRavens2008]
