On Rt. 41 in Litchfield County, the first town over the line from Millerton NY, Northern Dutchess County.

Yeah it is a nice rig, the weather was crappy this morning so the pictures are darker than I would have liked.

A very nice rig, I had the pleasure of looking at it a few weeks ago, thanks for posting the pics Mark...

The new technology rolling out in these rigs in regards to seat belt use and whatnot is quite interesting.. the audible alarm for not wearing your seat belt will annoy enough people into using them to be a good thing. The cameras on it that can be viewed via the driver and officer's seats computer screens are quite nice as well for all kinds of reasons.

A nicely built engine...

Very nice looking Engine. Good luck with it. I like the idea of the hard suction auto rack, like the ladder. Just curious as to how much hose space did you give up in the hose bed to have the ladder rack on one side and the hard suction rack on the other?

Lakeville is a village in the town of Salisbury, CT, which is the northwestern most town in the state of CT. It shares the boarder with Dutchess County and also with western Mass. Also the "tri-state maker" is located here.

Oh man, I could go a few places with this one................. where to begin......

Glad to hear the "cherry" was broken on the rig and it performed the way it should.
