Thanks, Frank. A rig I rode as a young firefighter, several years ago. And the photo was not taken in front of the West U station in the suburbs of Houston.

It's a factory photo. Shot at FWD plant I assume...

That is an interesting placement of the siren speakers on the corners of the bumper. I can say that I haven't seen that before.

Washington,D.C. used to have their speakers angled to the corners. The waves "bounced" off the buildings,hence better sound penetration.
