Ok why is it every time someone puts on here about someone getting a new toy, everyone says kinda how they don't need it or there are 4-6 around them? Here it is, Wappingers is looking into a new truck good for them. Long over due. the same s*** happened when Hughsonville got their rescue, everyone said 'oh, they don't need it, its too big, its too much money'. If every dept. in southern Dutchess wants their own ladder who cares? Its not my dept. its not yours. If they all wanna be self sufficient, good for them. Just seems like every time someone gets a new toy everyone has something to say thats not good. And as for can they guarantee they will get it out, can any one guarantee anyone will get all there trucks out? No, they can't unless your paid. I know of a fire in southern duchess where a capt. of dept. A had to go to dept B and drive there rig to there fire. Jetphoto you know what I'm talking about. Everyone in southern duchess works very good with each other. As for what I know, the truck is very much needed. Also to BFD1054 if you didn't know 68-45 is out first on 98% of there calls most of the time, and due to the way it was set up also can act as a first due.

wounder if it was the same guy I seen down the jersey shore some 222 miles(one way) and four hours away, driving around in his chief truck.

I would like to say thank you to everyone that showed up today. It was truly an awesome stop. Thank you to the Wappingers Falls PD and the civilian's who help get all the animals out of the pet store.
P.S. Does anyone have any photo's of the fire in the start (ex. PhotoUnit???)

Glad to see that your ok Jim.

Just an fyi those batteries are for the power supply for cablevision. In the gray 1in pvc pipe is also live electral wires. In the power supply there are either 6 or 8 batteries depending on the area it is feeding. It is always important to "look up" when you have a car into a pole. Those power supplies are very heavy can can do a lot of damage.

I think this was a great use of time. When all your doing is sitting there with your hands in you pockets and new members, thats always a great time to learn.
