This Engine is one of the finest pieces of equipment I have ever had the privilege of using. It is designed for firefighters and firefighting. Extremely dependable, versatile, and easy to operate. Drives and handles like a sports car and rides like a limousine. It operate so sweetly!

Very fine apparatus. We have a brand new one in our station now. Good acceleration, braking and pumps great. Very smooth riding truck and plenty of room. Great compartment space, have no complaints at all. Superb truck.

This apparatus is one of most firefighter friendly pieces of apparatus our department has. As long as you can get it in pump gear it will pretty much do the rest of the work for you.

We enjoy the use of a 2002 contender 1250 gpm pump, 1250 gal. tank and have had little issue with it. We would love tomoveup to the Dash, but do not want to part with the additional cash.

We have the 2001 model and it is the biggest piece of junk ever to enter our station. The foam does not want to work half the time, and the pump failed the first of 3 times with only 20 hours of use. the second time was another 100 hrs. later. Also the truck is to low to the ground compared to other engines. i wish we could get rid of it. the only thing good about it is it's ride and it looks cool.
