      Mark Mullen. I can still remember many years back the Accokeek, Oxon Hill, Camp Springs, Fort Washington and Temple Hills areas when they were some of the nicest and reasonably safe areas of P.G. County. Now that has all changed and you are right about some areas being a war zone. There is a Street in Accokeek named Biddle Road. The Neighborhood there was at one time called Little Italy. Because we ( Italians ) were the only People living on that Street. Well it is not Little Italy any longer and it is no longer The nice old Italian Neighborhood it once was. It is now a real Ghetto.

      sounds like a ripoff. In Europe for this money one could buy almost 5 Magirus M32L-AS (depending on the exchange rate). That have the same length of a ladder, higher tip load, rescue basket and articulated last segment of the aerial. And low cab all steerable short chassis will get into places, this tiller would newer be able to. Yes, European aerials usually do not carry ground ladders, but you could easily use engines or squad trucks (even cheaper) for that.

    Only 377' of ground ladder? That's more than many depts carry across their entire fleet. 'Strong Work!' as the cliche goes. Or is it 'Reaching New Heights'?

      The bucket would block the view of the tiller man. Plus a tower ladder boom sits considerably higher while bedded than a stick does
