What is your first due engine??

year, make, model, how much water does it hold, how many gpm, how many guys does it hold,special equipment, and the big one, what did it cost... we all know that the first due engine is one of the most important trucks we have, and also one of the coolest ones to brag about! we also know that its usually the "small town" fire departments that have the nicest trucks...so let the braggin begin! ill begin... ours is a 2007 Pierce Enforcer rescue pumper, 6 man cab, side mount pump controls, 750 gal tank, pumps 1500 GPM, PTO generator, electric/hydraulic jaws power unit with on board reels for jaws, 2 500' power cord reels... i believe it cost around $400,000.00 with all new equipment.
