Yes and no imo. A lot of big town/small city departments buy them and never use them. Meanwhile, our late 80s (?) Dodge is point and pin it wherever we need to go. Most of these new "brush trucks" really type 6 wildland engines and too big to go a lot of places around here.

Or you could join this century… and get 4000+ holes from one cutting edge and do it 50% faster :D

I mean, I could, but:
1. It ain't free, unlike the ones I have.
2. It ain't a Morse taper backend, so I'd have to buy an MT4 to 1.25" weldon adapter which would make the stackup way longer.
3. I ain't got coolant, and you toolboiz don't like that.
4. I'd still be looking for that T8IP torx to change the inserts because I'm sure whatever was in it last would be broke.
5. The inserts I'd be changing to would be some worn out ones in the pack that were the best of the ones left.
6. I'd give up on all that and just sharpen the drill body anyway, but it doesn't look like it would center cut very well, and those coolant ports are gonna make hot spots that melt too fast :D

Love that old truck. It'll go anywhere you want, but nowhere fast. Carries a full comoliment of wildland equipment for a 4 man crew and 150 gallons of water. Feels like driving a watered down the road though and tops out about 60mph.
