Quote:If you look you can see where they just painted over the unit numbers on the rear of the rig.
Quote:What's the story with the chevrons being painted over on the rig above? It's so odd to me to see Blue on the driver's side and Red on the officer's for lights, but we run all Red (and White) so that's a whole different story.
Love the Clark County rigs with the painted Yellow bumpers by the way.
Thanks for sharing,

Hey Trav
If this is the one that you are talking about it was part of the HazMat Units in the Las Vegas Valley. On the rig you will notice CBRNE which was the HazMat units out here. It stands for Chemical Biological Reactive Nuclear Explosive but a few years ago the Clark County Fire Department basically got on the bad side of a certain County Commissioner, he is now the County Commission Chairman, and he went after everything from overtime to staffing to the Hazmat and Heavy Rescue Units. The Hazmat Team which included the CBRNE Units were disbanded and the County now depends solely on the City of Las Vegas for Hazmat and Heavy Rescue Teams.
The unit above was at one time assigned to the Hazmat team and this is now a reserve unit so they repainted over the Chevrons. I hope this answers your questions.
And I love the lighting on the rigs you should see it at night. One of these days I will try and get a picture of it.
