You won't find any blue lights in my department, front or rear, though. Red, white, and amber seem to do the job just fine.[/quote]
I disagree. The D.O.T. and NFPA has standards on what lighting package goes on Fire Apparatus from Ambulances to Fire Engines. DOT requires 1 Amber, 1 Blue in the rear of ALL Fire Apparatus including Ambulances. If upon delivery your FD decides to change it, then whatever, but when ordering and when you receive the apparatue that's wht you get.
