New buggy for Bartlett FPD Battalion 3

Nov 8

Posted by Admin in Fire Department News, New Delivery | 1 Comment

From Bartlett Fire District Facebook page:

Exciting news from the BFPD! We’ve just welcomed a new Battalion 3 buggie, featuring several notable improvements:

– Clean Cab Concept: We’re adhering to the clean cab standard by storing firefighting gear, which may contain contaminants, in the back of the truck instead of the cab area.

– Enhanced Equipment Space: The truck’s design, featuring a rear cap, offers increased room for equipment storage. – Tethered Drone Integration: This vehicle is equipped with a tethered drone that can be launched directly from the truck, enhancing accountability and situational awareness.
