Fleet Friday S1 - Engine 16

[@ips7]

I think this was the best Fleet Friday so far. Great video guys, the description of the apparatus by the guys was spot on and great to watch.

[@poohbearmom64]

Totally agree with you

[@ltmetka9755]

Hello, I am a German young Fire fighter and its nice to see the difference between German and American engines. It's very interesting for me. Thanks for the video

[@jackyoung7095]

I love fleet Friday because you cover every thing and tell us as much information as you can

[@DeadoffDrop209]

Thank you and God Bless to all first responders! I appreciate you each

[@louism.4957]

The fire medic reminds me off Jim Carrey 😂

[@poohbearmom64]

Thanks for sharing the details of this Engine 😎 I enjoy South Metro F R videos as they're informative and interesting 😀😀.

Can you do Fleet Friday on Hazmat 38?

[@TerryTheTickler]

can you do a fleet Friday on a heavy rescue?

[@camden3957]

Thank you Eric & Connor

[@jarryths7455]

Beautiful looking engine very well set up great video

[@ppmm2417]

Very nice truck. Love Pierce trucks. I like the PUC.

[@kameronsmith5434]

Nice video keep the good work up good job

[@cntslesfabrication]

Out here in Vegas the engines carry the ladders on top of the trucks on a hydraulic cradle that lowers the ladders to the ground.

[@travelfan0011]

Been looking forward to Fleet Friday all week! This one was great!

[@Scfdunit2]

Question for ya'll, do all your engine's carry similar equipment, like wildland and high rise equipment, or does each company decide what equipment is needed for their district? Like Engine 32 vs Engine 40 seeing as their districts are very different. Love the videos and keep up the good work!

[@rob.o.b]

You guys are the best! 🔥🔥

[@Brian-gw6di]

How do you guys like the Dash CF compared to other engines? You gain more room up front but lose room in the bunk seat area.

[@stephenbritton9297]

1) do your hydrants operate backwards? right to open and left to close, or did the video get mirrored some how? 2) the little switches on the shelves below the crosslays, is that a safety to prevent charging with the door closed? 3) I like the compartment fold down into a step on the rear!

[@stephenbritton9297]

@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO Thanks! It sure looks like he's turning it backwards in the video... must just be me. :)

[@simonsupersi2225]

Love to see how you put the hoses back on the ones behind the cab

[@willlewis8340]

very interesting video , is all the fire engines , ladders and rescue pierce ? how can your engines pump a minute ?

[@matthewassell6471]

[@sladjanaperic4691]

Hello SMFR, question: Why do you have white engines and black engines?-please answer back!

[@Olivia-tk7se]

I have a question. How many woman are usually firefighters ?

[@paintballgaming1090]

Out of curiosity is there any benefit to the hidden pumps and cross lays? I’ve seen Departments have them just never understood why.

[@cntslesfabrication]

You will never see it like that here in Vegas Because it doesn't snow here.

[@paintballgaming1090]

South Metro Fire Rescue PIO Cool, I live in North Carolina so we don’t get much snow.

[@denflyr]

South Metro Fire Rescue PIO That makes complete sense....now how do they reload after the line has been used. I’m assuming it slides out.

[@paintballgaming1090]

Brian White Usually the tray that the crosslay is in will slide out so you can re pack it and then it will slide back in

[@justinbates2889]

The PUC pump also give the apparatus 1 more large compartment rather then the pump panel taking up so much room

[@rescue911responding7]

Love it keep it going guys

[@matthew2507]

What is the music in your videos? Also love these Fleet Videos!

[@live2farm977]

Love the vids South Metro! Can you tell me what song is playing at around 15 minutes?

[@acfbfirephotography4875]

What kind of helmets do y’all use I’m looking for a good one but I keep finding ones with tilted identification shields

[@danielwest1589]

Why do the fire fighters wear headphones while in the truck? Awesome video though, keep it up.

[@danielwest1589]

Do a Fleet Friday on Tower 35.

[@robbland5088]

Could you do the next fleet friday on the tower ladders

[@aviationcatF22]

Roby Bland yes I agree

[@daspicsman]

Your trucks are always clean and well put together. Kudos!

[@DJGamingDarionTV]

🚒🚒🚒🚒Awesome video. I think I’d rather be on a engine instead of the truck Lol hope I have a choice

[@PeterLokey]

Awesome Video.

[@terrakxfb4865]

I saw you used an conector that looked like german A conenctor on your large diameter Hose, is it actully a german conector or only somthing simmelar? How much water do your Nozels put out?

[@MattFFEMT]

It's a Storz adapter/connection, many departments use this connection for Large Diameter Hose (supply line), as well as some Fire Department Connections, Dry Hydrants, and normal hydrants. 1.75" handlines typically put out around 150 GPM, 2.5" handlines typically put out anywhere from 250-325 GPM.

[@bunker108]

Are you still buying these Dash CFs or have you started spec’ing Enforcers?

[@bunker108]

South Metro Fire Rescue PIO looking forward to it! Thanks.

[@markgloverville]

Pretty sweet rig

[@exorcist933]

That legit looks like a rescue truck

[@Yyyyyyyyyyfff]

Can you do a tour on Friday

[@gabrielfranklin5032]

Why no SCBA in the officer's seat?

[@PedroLima-hz5vt]

Quick question, are engines only crewed with 3 firefighters? In Portugal, most stations usually have a minimum of 4 and a max of 6 firefighters

[@whiplashfirephotography8348]

In my department we have 2 stations and we only have 3 on duty members at station 2

[@PedroLima-hz5vt]

@@whiplashfirephotography8348 Every station here is actually its own department It's totally different The only department that has the same system as you do are the RSB (Regimento Sapadores de Bombeiros), in which they have different battalions spread out around Lisbon, Porto and Coimbra, the main Portuguese cities

[@brennancrumb835]

What year and model is it

[@brennancrumb835]

South Metro Fire Rescue PIO ok because I knew it was a Pierce I just knew it wasn’t a saber or a velocity

[@williemartin9872]

Do you guys use captains as well or go from Lt to Bc?

[@williemartin9872]

What’s the purpose to use both Lt’s and captains ? Why not one or the other?

@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO okay. Yall must have some revenue coming in if yall can afford that. Our department has 8 engines, 2 aerials, 5 medic, and a rescue running 22000 calls a year roughly in the entire city. They can rarely have one additional guy on our rescue, let alone 4 guys on every apparatus.

Ethan Regan My city has 3 Engines 3 Ladders and a Rescue (which is cross staffed by the Ladder crew) and they barely have 4 people to a truck it’s lucky if they do

what preconnect hose lay do y’all use ?

[@NAVYMEDIC610]

1.75 inch and 2.5 inch preconnected 200 foot hoselines

[@simonsupersi2225]

So you only run 3 on the engine? Here in uk not allowed to run with no less than 4 firefighters for safety and so not all one 1 person to do all the work

[@harris5539]

I will say (not a firefighter) British fire engines/trucks have an open back cab 3/4 seats and on the back of the driver/passenger seat that’s where so equipment is
