Jumping around a bit, let's head to Hampden, ME Fire Dept, a department I was a volunteer with for about 9 months when I got out of high school...a long, long time ago. Anyway, they've moved up a long way from the horse and buggy days of old. First up is this 2003 Freightliner FL80/MetalFab 1250/750 Pumper as Engine 271. They were a bit leery of moving the two engines around too much because the pavement was new and it was leaving marks in it. So, with the big trucks, I had to settle for the way they posed them.
