Sterling operated this 1967 Farrar pumper built on a large FWD 2-door chassis. It was equipped with a 750-GPM front-mount pump and it carried 1000-gallons of water. Half a century later, the current Engine 4 is a Seagrave Marauder II that was built in 2010. This custom apparatus is rated to flow 2000-GPM. It hauls 1500-gallons of water and 25-gallons of class A foam.
