From what I was told while I was there, this truck is going to undergo a major refurb sometime in the near future. Not really sure what the refurb entails, but I'll be sure to post a photo once it's done.

Andrew,
Yep one of six ordered in 1992. They were the first red squads, first freightliners, and the last squads used by KCFD. They were Northland Squad 16,38. Downtown-east side Squad 10,27. SouthKC Squad 41,28. Looks great Squad 10 was always super busy in the Downtown eastside Getto with Pumper 10, Truck 3, Deputy Car 101. It ran all of the primary EMS runs at Tens. At that time Squad 10 also cross staffed Air 1 and the Command Bus that were housed at Tens for all second alarm fires. Thanks for posting great photos.
