In the photograph, Santa is pictured handing the keys to Chief Gary Crane as members of the department looked on. Working with Firetec in finding a new truck for our department was easy ... we gave Firetec Sales a list of our required specifications and they did the rest. Working within our price range, Firetec Sales emailed several photographs to us, enabling us to narrow down the choice to the unit we ultimately selected. We would recommend Firetec to anyone looking for a hassle-free buying experience! Thanks again for all of your help Gary Crane, Chief Palmyra FD, MO | ![]() Thanks for your help selling our 1968 Maxim. It was important to the department that the truck be sold to someone that was going to keep it up and not let it rot in a field someplace. You found us the right person.

August 4, 2006 We recently purchase a snorkel truck, from West Seneca,NY with the assistance of your firm. We had been looking for a rig that would fit our needs for quite some time. I saw the snorkel on the web site a sent a inquiry, someone contacted me the next day. Which really shocked me! The lady gave me the contact numbers for the fire company in New York.

![]() "I believe I contacted Firetec around the week of October 10th, 2005. They sent me information and pictures of a prospective pumper that met our criteria of type, size and price within a day of contact. We learned from them that another company was looking at the piece on Sunday, October 16th, 2005, in the morning. We made arrangements to look at the engine that same day in the afternoon. It was absolutely perfect for what we needed. Fortunately the other company had difficulty getting their down payment right away and we had the funds available. I told Firetec that we would make an offer and send a downpayment on 10/19. On Nov 7 we had a meeting and the District voters granted us permission to purchase. Firetec facilitated the sales documents and we picked up the vehicle on Nov 20th. Super quick, painless and easy. I would use Firetec again in a heartbeat. Thanks Barb and Jennifer!" Chief John Greene Montague, MA | ![]() "Appreciate y'all, you really helped us out. It's just what we needed. Better than we ever dreamed. I've already recommended y'all for some pumpers. I liked talking directly with the other volunteer department up there in New York and we paid 50% less than what we would have expected to pay for a truck in this condition. It didn't need any work done, the department took great care of it. Feel free to quote me on that." Jesse Kirk Shady Dale, OK | ![]() "Barbara, I tried other marketing avenues with absolutely no success. Though the efforts of the Firetec staff we had several inquiries on the engine. As a result of these inquiries, Firetec was successful in finding us a buyer. I would recommend Firetec and their staff to anyone who is considering selling surplus fire apparatus. Certainly the next time I have a surplus piece of apparatus for sale, my first contact will be the staff at Firetec. You and Jennifer make this thing tick. I'm pleased and the guys at the station are pleased." Firetec Note: Jack and the folks at Four Communities FD generously donated additional equipment to the department, including several hundred feet of hose, clamps, spanner wrenches, ' 6" hard suction, (2) diesel generators (one functional and one for parts) AND filled up the gas tank for the trip home. New owners of the 1991 E-One Protector, Chief Rowe and members of the Burkesville, Kentucky VFD, travelled over 12 hours each way to pick up their new unit.

All other sites you have to call to get the price and it takes a lot of time to see if it is even what you want. Your site has every thing about the truck. A BIG THANKS again." Gary Reeder Wapanucka, OK | ![]() "We were not sure we would be able to sell our truck at all! We tried other brokers and tried ourselves-- only Firetec could sell it.

Fulda Firefighters Find Ford Rescue Through FiretecFrom March 2005 issue of Fire Apparatus By Ed Ballam, used with permission of publisher. FULDA, Minn. - If you ask the Wieskus brothers, they'll tell you the best place to buy used apparatus is through Firetec, the nation's largest used apparatus broker. As fire chiefs of their respective departments, the brothers Wieskus bought two rescue trucks, years apart and miles apart. They say it's a testament to the kind of service Firetec gives its customers. Dan Wieskus, the fire chief of the Fulda (Minn.) Fire Department, recently bought a 1993 12-foot rescue, built by National on a Ford F700 cab and chassis. That apparatus came from the Grand Traverse Rural Fire Department, in Traverse City, Mich. Just about two years ago, Dan's brother bought a 1992 Horton walk-in rescue in his capacity as chief of the Garretson Fire Department, Garretson, S.D.. That unit was bought from the Woolrich Fire Department in Swedesboro, N.J. "Firetec was a great help in an easy transfer of this unit," said Dan Wieskus of his new rescue in Fulda. "Everyone is pleased with our purchase." The 1993 Ford rescue was driven from Traverse City to Fulda after the truck committee flew to Michigan on Jan. 28, on a private plane, flown by a pilot who donated the flight to the department. After inspecting the rescue and completing the transaction, the crew drove straight from Michigan to their station in Fulda, arriving the next day at 6 a.m. with no problems at all. On Jan. 29 they "changed things over from our old rescue van and put this one in service," Wieskus says. The members of the Fulda Fire Department were among 51 potential customers for the $42,000 rescue. It is powered by a Cummins 190 hp 5.9 liter engine and an Allison AT545 transmission. It's equipped with a 15,000-watt pto generator, four 500-watt pole lights, two 1,500-watt scene lights and a reel with 250 feet of power cord. It also has a crew compartment for four with SCBA seats, a coffee maker and a refrigerator. Other equipment includes a 12,000-pound winch, two light boxes, low-band and high-band radios, warning lights, siren and a light bar. A special feature is an isolated 12-volt electrical system designed specifically to supply clean power to electronic equipment with a 190 amp Powerline alternator. For Wieskus, the deal couldn't have been easier or gone smoother, to the credit of Firetec. "We would do business with them anytime," Wieskus says.

![]() We really appreciate your assistance in locating this pumper. Thanks for all your help! Kirk Storey Haworth, OK | ![]() "We are very happy with our vehicle and happy you were able to sell our old one. We tell everyone about you. Thanks again." Gregg Sanford Clark, PA | ![]() Barb, Firetec is very easy to work with on all aspects of selling/listing equipment. No pressure on you at all ! When we sold this Engine they guided us through the whole process . We sold two units within six weeks listing them with Firetec and we were very satisfied on the selling price. As we found out there is a great market for quality used fire equipment.. After both units were sold we were still receiving calls from all over the US on their availability. Highly recommend to any department. Pictured: Members of Cravins FD in Wilburton, OK as the prepare to head home with the 81 Mack from Pompey, NY. Dennis Smith Pompey, NY |
![]() Thanks for all of your help. It has been a pleasure to deal with your company. Myron Munyon Papineau, IL | ![]() Again thanks for all of your help with both trucks, one purchased and one sold. I have talked to a lot of people about the service that your company provides. Thanks. Chief Mike Becker St. Paul FD St. Paul, NE | ![]() Jen, John Adams and three others, your neighbors in Vershire, arrived in Varna yesterday afternoon to take possession of their "new" Mack American Eagle pumper. I'm getting a couple of things together for our treasurer to document the sale and I expect he'll have a check in the mail to you early this week. We have truly enjoyed the experience of working with Vershire Volunteer Fire Department to complete the sale. The preliminary transactions up until last evening were sealed with a handshake - quite unusual any more, unfortunately. Thanks for finding them for us. Captain Duane Testnut Ithaca, NY |
