The difference between a platform and a quint in real life is the addition of water and a pump. The manpower is the same. It would be nice if the game could reflect this.
depends on the department, At LA County there is a shift at 1 station on their Light Force that everyone is on the Quint and the Engine responds with only the Engineer.

That is how LA County deploys a resource. It has nothing to do with if the apparatus is a quint or a dry ladder.
what makes a quint a quint is the addition of a water tank and a pump.
A dry ladder can have a crew of 1 or 6 and some places maybe more. No different for a quint.
Again the term “quint” has nothing to do with crew size
Currently, I feel that is the least of the issues with the Tiller Ladder Trailer.
It costs an extra 2k over a platform, takes up 2 spaces (both with the cab & trailer), requires additional training (CDL for the cab) with no ability to carry any equipment.
It is more effective to just have a Platform/Quint and use a tiller graphic than use the Tiller Trailer.
i would like to see the crewcab go to a manpower of 6 like a tiller cab but also add a standard cab with a max of 2
Not my circus and not my monkeys, but would there be a way to increase the max, but leave them set at 3 crew max, and people have to manually increase it to whatever level of staffing they want?
Lol yeah I was going to suggest exactly the same thing. It might be a bit harder to implement but worth it. They should do this in every instance of changing crewing numbers.
