According to Jones County Fire Coordinator Kyle Brooks, this order is for replacement trucks. He said the department chose the Ferrara FC-94 due to its great price point and the county’s previous work with Ferrara.

“Being able to get a custom pumper in that price range was a main determining factor,’’ Brooks said. “We’ve also been very satisfied with the Ferrara fire trucks we’ve purchased in the past. It was a unanimous decision to go with Ferrara. These trucks are really going to benefit Jones County.”

Brooks said Jones County Fire Service is comprised of 18 volunteer departments, one combination department and one full-time department.

“We appreciate Jones County Fire Service continuing to trust in Ferrara for their fire apparatus needs,” said Bert McCutcheon, Vice President and General Manger for Ferrara. “We know these six trucks will meet the specific needs of this department as they serve and protect the citizens of Jones County.”
