3000 gallon. In person these are very compact, easy-to-drive trucks.

I'll echo these sentiments...I've driven over a dozen of these. They're very maneuverable and fun to drive. The newer ones are mainly IHC or FL's.

Is that tanker used for all calls or for forest fires ? Very nice rig and I guess it must be good to go anywhere .
