This post just once again, goes to show how things have changed in the fire service. Trucks used to be so unique with color and specification. Everything from trim, to colored wheels, to the overall fit and finish. Now, they're White and Red, or Black and Red, and you could pick the body up and set it right on another one.

Can a rig be cool looking and ugly at the same time? If so, this one fits.
