Idk, I do know Philadelphia has new KMEs.

Oh, so I was almost right, lol. So two intakes and a trashline...

Man, I love those boats ever since the Coast Guard started using them!

Also, don't EMS Divisions run red Impalas...

The connection in the bumper is a intake, and both swiveled elbows on top are discharges.

All apparatus are the same in regards to their critics...

The department that I used to belong to was looking into a Walk-In with a small tank and a pump, or even a CAFS system. They were looking into a commercial cab, but I would rather see a custom.

Westchester Has an ESU program already I believe, so probably just updating apparatus.

Are you talking about Glenville Fire District in Greenwich...?

I'm guessing ESU... Anyone know how old their current truck is? Plus, I would have painted the hood blue as well, IMO.

I saw one in Croton-on-Hudson yesterday in the yard.

What??? We will take back trucks purchased with grant money but create a grant program so you have money to buy it back.....If that was a true quote, then that is pretty much a circle, lol.

Some NYRA officers in Saratoga carry firearms, But those who do carry are the "Senior Citizens" of the force and usually carry older revolvers in deteriorating holsters...

Ex-FDNY Ladder 44 now used by a tree company in New Hampshire...

My department has a BLS bag w/O2 and AED in all apparatus including cars and utilities. We also have a First Response vehicle with an addition to backboards, burn kits, pediatric kits, etc.

Even an LASD Academy season too!

I remember watching OCFA Fire Academy on Fox Reality Network, that was a good show.

You can find alot of new model police edition chargers on ebay, usually from dealers.
