SFFD - Engine 21

San Francisco's Engine 21 is a 1999 3D Manufacturing pumper with 1250 gallon per minute pump and 500 gallon water tank. These apparatus were extremely popular with San Francisco driver/operators. An interesting note: The SFFD still manufacture their own wooden ground ladders and brass smooth bore nozzles. (Notice the brass intake valve just behind the crew cab.)

Very true about the crews liking these rigs. SFFD runs their equipment very hard and these have been bullet proof. They are also very, very fast.

FYI, my grand uncle worked in the ladder shop after retiring from the SFFD in the 1950's.
