No, not a dump truck - Look closely it's a POD carrier.

Anyone know what these are used for? I know these are separate from the EMS Haz Mat units

Anyone know if there are any other PODs or bodies for this truck? It looks like a hook lift model instead of a cable hoist model.

Thanks,

Must be a lot of rigs due to come up for sale. They are replacing a large amount of ladders and Scope's, time to inject a bit of youth into the spare fleet. Some of those Scope's look in good nick, might be a good buy for some departments.

The front-line rigs being replaced are all going to the spare/reserve pool, the stuff that will be sold or scrapped is well over 20 years old and stripped of any useful parts.

The rigs pictured tow the CTV trailers. They carry hazmat equipment for larger incidents. 6 Similar vehicles are assigned to HMO, for a total of 8.
