"Heavier" Tools and rams, airbags and rescue struts. You'll see other area departments that have beefed up their engine companies due to money and manpower that have gone away from fully manned rescue compainies. You are correct about the long haul to the extremes of the city. If a squad makes it to the scene, theyre probably going to be working with their tools. More often than not on *pin jobs* the 1st or 2nd engine can get the extrications complete before the squad arrvies.
