"Hi-Tech enjoys an excellent reputation for both sales and service. We are very pleased that they have joined the Crimson team."
Hi-Tech will provide vehicles sales, bumper-to-tailboard vehicle repair service and parts sales for Crimson Fire. The company, which has 43 employees, also sells and services Hurst Rescue Tools. For the past 21 years, the company has designed and built 400+ custom pumpers, tenders and other fire apparatus for area fire departments.
"We feel this will be an excellent marriage," said Dan Marchione, president of Hi-Tech. "We have worked extensively with Crimson's parent company, Spartan Motors, for many years and are very impressed with the quality of their product and their customer service.
"Crimson Fire offers a complete line of vehicles that will be very attractive to departments in our region. We look forward to representing Crimson in Central and Northern California and Northern Nevada."
