The vehicle features the following, which was done by Warnock and Croton DPW Shops.

Four hideaway Whelen LED lights ) 2 clear in front and 2 red to rear

Two Whelen 500 series amber LED lights mounted on rear hatch

Two Whelen 400 series red LED lights on push bumper

Headlight flasher

Two Kenwood radios (1 low band, 1 dual UHF/VHF High band)

County Issue Motorola Trunk radio

Command Center in rear

There's other features, I will get more info and pics this weekend. Here's a pic from an incident early this AM.

I like the way many departments are sterring towards simpler designs. Good luck with it.

It's cool what the Croton DPW shops can do. One of my fellow probies in the fire academy who is now a LaGrange firefighter helped with the last Croton command vehicle, the F-350. I remember it being assembled there, and they did a great job.

I must say that we are fortunate with our DPW mechanics skills and knowledge. They also do all the Croton PD cars. Seth I didn't know you were in the same class as Paul.
