Also in Palm Beach County's experimental stage are a handful of these new 2012 Ford F550 CAFS/300/10F brush rigs. What would have been called Brush 28 is now designated Brush 628 in reference to the Forestry Type VI rig that it is. This lets those on scene know that they're not getting one of the full-size brush trucks that the department used to operate exclusively. So far, other than the air conditioning, I've heard nothing good about them from the crews.
