I just got back from checking out the new apparatus for Glenview Fire Department's Truck 14. As mentioned earlier, the department finally received their shiny new Pierce Arrow XT quint, which is set to replace the older 2003 Pierce Dash model. The new truck is expected to hit the road in June, but the website has already been updated with its details. I managed to snap some photos, and I must say, it looks pretty impressive.
The new Truck 14 comes equipped with a 2013 Pierce Arrow XT 1500/450/10/40 105′ rear-mount quint. One noticeable difference from the previous model is the slightly longer wheelbase, thanks to an extended pump panel that now includes a Smart Power 10-KW generator and a XRT power system for the Hurst tools. There’s also an extended front bumper with a Hurst high-pressure cutter and spreader, complete with 100-foot reels. Another cool feature is the all-LED lighting system, which makes it stand out even more.
Interestingly, the Village of Northfield chipped in $100,000 toward the purchase of this new truck. In return, Truck 14R will be stationed at Northfield Station 29, running as Truck 29 when Northfield needs a response outside their area. When Glenview’s main Truck 14 is out of service, the older unit will return to Glenview as Truck 14.
In addition to these changes, there are a few other notable differences between the new and old models. For instance, the new truck features a shorter barrier clearance door and an Arrow XT cab instead of the previous Dash chassis. Plus, there’s a small tool compartment tucked behind the cab, and the signboard now proudly displays both Glenview and Northfield’s names.
On another note, Glenview also recently welcomed a brand-new ambulance to Station 6. They’ve gone with a 2013 Type I Medtec on an IHC 4300 chassis, similar to their existing fleet. This new ambulance sports LED lighting and a fresh paint job on the box with a black border near the roof, which required a tweak in the lettering. It’s replacing the older 2007 IHC/Medtec, which now serves as the spare ambulance. Interestingly, the previous spare—a 2001 Freightliner FL60/Road Rescue—has been taken out of service.
I also had a chance to check out the rear view of the new Ambulance 6, and it’s got those classic chevron stripes that make it easily recognizable. It’s great to see the department investing in modern equipment while maintaining consistency across their fleet. Overall, it seems like Glenview Fire Department is really stepping up their game with these new additions.
