In response to the recent post about the Aurora Fire Department and the active comments discussing their operations, a reader submitted the following information for clarification purposes :

All engines and trucks are E-One. All front line engines have 750-gal booster tanks and 1500-gpm pumps. Trucks are 0/0 (true trucks). All front line ambos are from Medtec on the Ford E-350 chassis except for Medic 10 which is a Medtec on a Ford F-450. The reserve ambos are all Ford E-350s, but some are Lifeline.
