It's always interesting to see how these older rigs have moved around and found new homes. This 1985 Pierce Arrow has had a long career, first serving in Illinois before being transferred to Kansas. The tank capacity and flow rate make it a solid piece of equipment, and it’s great to see it still being used today.
