I was about to say doesn't this conflict their relationship with CustomFIRE, I know the KME dealer in SC just bought FES and that raised some eyes

There's been a long-standing relationship between Smeal and CustomFire, so I have a feeling this was blessed between everyone involved.

Custom Fire actually sells Smeal in their area for an aerial line.  If you also look on Custom's site they have a Smeal demo commercial pumper listed.
