Winnipeg Rehab 7. This truck is a 1984 GMC 6000 with a body that was most likely built in-house. it originally started as a Command unit and was painted all white. designed F603 it was originally stationed at station 13, then moved to station 10. in 2012 it was decided to be refitted into a rehab unit, this was also the time when the department was switching colour schemes from the normal white over red to the current scheme of black over red so this truck had the designation of being the second truck in the fleet to get the new colours. during the refit LED lights and a few other features were added. this truck is the only vehicle in the city fleet to be propane-fueled. unfortunately due to its age and mechanical condition if temperatures drop below ~ -35 (when it's most needed) it cant be brought out. this unit is only written into the response protocols for grass fires but it's special requested to a lot of fires during extreme weather. this picture was taken at a large defensive fire in February where temperatures hovered around the -35 to -40 mark.
