Next up is the Talca Fire Department.  Here, once we shot all the Talca rigs at the first station, the chief, who'd been called in when he found out we were there, loaded us up in his buggy and took us to several more of his stations.  There, he made it really easy for us to get posed photos of each of the rigs.  First up is his buggy, designated K1, a 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe.

I'd never seen a Chevrolet like the last one and I've never seen a Dodge like this one.  What used to be the department's HazMat rig is this 1979 Dodge/Rosenbauer rig.
