  The bell just adds a whole lot of class no matter how many FFs are on board!

  As far as I know the truck only goes to mutual aid calls.

  Do they still run the truck as a Jump company? I would have thought that with the addition of of Highwood they would get the extra tax dollars and be able to increase staffing?

  They have never made staffing a priority. Years ago they used to run a mini pumped squad with 1 guy. They lost their truck when they took over highwood and got 900 more runs a year and no increase in manning.

  I love the bright green traffic cones that is why I like fire trucks that color

  yes while u need at least 3 on a rig to be safe but I guess it works for them and as for there truck it is old and maybe they really don’t use it much

  One of the wealthiest cities in the state and they’re running 2 man companies and still can’t staff their own truck company. 5,500 runs a year.
