- A walkthrough and demonstration of the pump and roll capabilities of our new rescue. This feature is achieved using a conventional split shaft pump drive, and EZ Trac hydraulic AWD system.

Its amazing to see how much hills stations little fire department has changed! Awesome addition , may not live there anymore but hills Station will always be home!
When Austria and german engineering meets american firetrucks, this happens. An all rounder.
I would want to see the lights and like see a little siren demo and what not; cuz that’s just my favorite type of stuff.....
As I said on another of your videos that is the sexiest fire truck I’ve ever seen. I mean the color scheme, the styling, even the font selection for the lettering is awesome. Makes me want to drive the two hours to go see it in person. That said, as a computer engineer I am severely disappointed. So much potential for absolutely amazing automation and system integration and it’s missing. The workflows are way too complicated with way too many steps. It should have a single button for activate pumps that does everything including activating the parking brake if the truck is sitting still. Take for instance the new Chevy Tahoe police package… if the drivers door is opened below a certain speed it automatically shifts into park assuming the officer is exiting the vehicle to chase a suspect on foot. Or if the officer exits the vehicle while running and takes the key fob it prevents anyone from shifting it into gear until the key returns inside the vehicle. It’s the small things like that which reduce the workload of the operator and simplify operation. In this case I would say a great automation would be the CAD to transmit the incident location and type (ie: fire) to the truck which automatically sets the location as the destination in the GPS and activates a geofence. When the truck arrives inside the geofence it automatically activates the pumps and charges them making the truck ready to perform before they even seen the scene. Oh the potential to reduce workload and simplify the “extras” so the guys can focus on their job of putting out the fire and not working a half million dollar machine.
I can really appreciate your desire for automation. I truly wish that we could reach close to the level that you were describing, and I was pushing Rosenbauer for it. The pump and roll is a poor example of the technology this truck incorporates. The problem with the pump and roll was meeting several regulations at once, which required these steps to be performed. In a future video we will be doing a side by side comparison of this rig, and our older one, which will show where were able to achieve some of this automation. If you would ever want to make the trip reach out to us on our Facebook page to make arrangements.
That’s a good looking fireman! Is he free to put out my fire?! 😉 nice Tonka Toy there. That hydraulic drive is way cool.
Jesus. Put out your own fire bro
I’m not sure if I’m completely sold on touch screen controls, seems slower and less intuitive than physical buttons.
Modern times require modern equipment!
@@LondonEmergency999 Yet the hammer and hand saw still exist.
The absolute best User Interfaces use a combination of the two together for the ideal experience. Sadly many designers feel that physical buttons and touchscreens are mutually exclusive and fail to integrate the two together. I think the ideal UI for this truck would be a remote control similar to what the modern rotator tow trucks are using with joysticks on both side of a tablet style screen enabling the user to move the truck with one and move the water monitor with the other. Or better yet dynamically assign functions to the joysticks based on the current selections on the screen.
