  • Here is some info. the truck is privately own by my dad and the buliding is too.The doors are just painted red to look like a firehouse. The trucks motor is not tweaked it just has a vertical exhaust and a small muffler.

  • @JdbTrucks Nice rig and all but your Dad could use a little driver training.

  • @Wonkawillie77 It wasn't my dad how had the problem! If you ever driven a tiller which you probably never have then you don't know how it works. The guy in the back was having the problem because he hadn't ever steered the ass end.

  • What is the name of this place?

  • It my dad's place

  • This truck here came from the Pittsburgh, Pa Fire Dept. and was originally the twin to the other American LaFrance Pioneer tiller. We have a few tillers in the collection. We have a total of 16 trucks-all are ALF's with the exception of two Seagraves. Stay safe and God Bless.

  • WOW ! tight squeeze. How was the turn coming out? I bet you both drivers had to be on their game, huh? Great looking rigs too. Love the "old school" fire trucks. Don't make 'em like that anymore.

  • @JdbTrucks I tillered Ladder 3 and Ladder 4 (among other duties since I retired as a Captain) for the City of Albany, NY Fire Department so I do know what it's like to drive and tiller a TDA. So, watching your father, who I'm sure is a great guy, he is having problems backing in and the tillerman is as well.

  • @JdbTrucks How many miles on that 8V71 that's powering it ??

  • Truck sounds great

  • nicejob to both backing that baby in.I would have torn the house down.

  • wow that must suck to back up

  • are all those trucks your dads?

  • Really beautiful piece!!

  • beautiful truck
