1996 Smeal HME 105' Aerial Smeal Chassis Detroit 8V92TA 500 HP Diesel Engine Allison HD4060P 5-speed Automatic Transmission Seller's Information About this Truck: I did a phone interview with someone from the City of Springfield Ohio Fire Department, to clarify some things about this truck. One of the main considerations about this truck was that it was custom designed by the Springfield Fire Department Officials and created at the HME factory (in Nebraska), to be made to particular specifications, regarding the overall height of the truck. This change in the height resulted in some initial issues that were resolved over the first couple of years. However, it was described to me that the ladder was so solid, climbing it was like climbing up concrete stairs. The ladder has higher sides than normal and is a top of the line ladder. A large and respectable fire truck parts company estimated the ladder, alone, to be worth $25,000 to $40,000.

When the decision was being made to sell the truck, the fire department wanted the city to consider selling different parts, but the city decided to sell the complete truck at one time. There is a problem with the engine, which I feel has been diagnosed properly and is not, overall, a great problem. I also did a phone interview with a chief mechanic from the 'City Garage,' and this person has been with the city since they first purchased this truck, in 1996. He knew the truck inside and out. Regarding the engine problem, not only is it their belief the truck has a blown head gasket or a cracked head, but they also had the truck towed to another special repair shop, who concurred that the truck, almost certainly, has a cracked head or a blown head gasket.

The truck was being driven on the street one day in 2015, and the driver noticed some smoke. He drove the truck straight to the City Garage, only about 3 or 4 miles. The garage started the truck a few times for diagnostic purposes. Then, as stated above, they had the truck towed over and towed back to another place, to get a 'second opinion' about the situation.

There is some light level of anti-freeze in the oil, but it is not like there is anti-freeze saturating the oil. We had the truck towed from Ohio to New Jersey and have started the truck only a few times to move it around in the parking lot.

It starts very easy, and smokes a little for a few minutes (like most diesels do). Then the smoke disappears. Smeal is one of the best fire trucks ever made. They are very expensive when they come off the line. The City of Springfield originally paid about $850,000 for this truck. You could almost think of a Smeal like a fine race car – like a Lamborghini.

This type of quality goes into the ladder, the generator, the pumping system, and everything. For example, the pump has a flow rate of 1,500 gallons per minute, which is probably enough to put a hole in a wall. This truck comes with books, just for this truck, about all of this. This truck comes with 22 pages (oversized computer print-out sheets) of chassis maintenance work that was done at HME, Inc. Before the truck was delivered to its original buyer.

This work was signed off on 8/28/1995. This information is at the beginning of a gigantic 3-ringed binder-book. Wheelbase: 236'. GVRW: 67,500.
