What Type Of Ladder Truck Do You Have In Your Department

I was just wondering what type of Ladder Trucks do you have in your Departments.
Where I came from in New York, we had two ladder trucks. One was a 100 Ft. American
LaFrance Tiller, and the second was a 100 Ft. Mid Mount Seagrave. Just as I was leaving
the department was getting a 100 Ft. Rear mount Platform.
The Department I am with now has a 50 Ft. American LaFrance Squirt.
I will say that it is a much smaller Department I am with now, but I am hoping that
some day soon it will be replaced with a larger Ladder. It is 29 years old, and has been
a excellent truck, and still looks good for it's age.

So tell me, " Whats In Your Department "

We've had some minor glitches with them, but you'll have that with any new vehicle. KME has been very good with service. Just last week we had an electrical problem with the tower. Called KME at 4PM Friday, they showed up to fix it at 8AM Saturday. (We are located about an hour and a half from the factory.)
