The Mishawaka Fire Department would like to introduce our two new arrivals to the community we serve!

This amazing set of twins are both Sutphen Monarch Pumpers and they couldn’t have been more identical.  They each had a birth weight of 47,000lbs and are 35ft 7in long, 9ft 11in high!  Both of them carry 750 gallons of water and we can’t wait to have them serving the city!

E3 is on the left and will be serving the north side of the city, replacing our current E3 which is a 2008 Seagrave. That unit will be going into a reserve status.

E4 is on the right and will serving the city from right here at headquarters on the east side.   It will be replacing the former E4 that was a 2007 Seagrave.

We would like to thank the City of Mishawaka for their continued support and for providing us top of the line equipment so that we can provide world class service to the citizens that give us the opportunity!
