YIKES. Im glad I left Converse Fire. That is a terrible truck. No storage, room for ladders or equipment. No truck should have a "3 foam system", 20 gallon foam tank, a bumper line and 500 gallons of water. It sounds about right for them however. Hard for a small city, two station department with ISO ratings and everything. Been there. I hope the hard working members of the CFD can figure out how to use this apparatus and staffing appropriately.
Ah my town of DFD rescue 1 we been upgrading our trucks to make it better and we’re fixing to get our first electric fire truck that will be going to that station know as Central Station which is what takes care of all the heavy stuff.
Oshkosh is building(has built?)an EV 6X6 ARFF rig for Boeing Field (King County A/P,Seattle), apparently it’s bigger than this rig! I’m still not sure about this push for EVs! I do love the Oshkosh lineup though!!
