    If submitting an OFFER, please use the "message" section to note if your offer is for the VEHICLE ONLY (as listed) *or* you are interested in having some/all of the pictured equipment (ladders and/or hard suction and/or deck gun) left with the vehicle upon transfer. Our Board will consider the offer price any any requested equipment when reviewing and accepting any and all offers -- but they are committed to seeing this move on to a new home as the replacement apparatus will arrive next week.
    Built at the Oakdale Van Pelt factory in 1984 for the Stockton (CA) Fire, as the tale held, it ran as Engine 17 (Van Pelt #830664), where she served about 1984 until about 2007. She landed in private hands - twice - before coming our way in August 2014. As our use and needs have changed, this apparatus is being released from our little family of "toys."
