hey everone my name is chris i have been volunteering for 2 yrs now and i enjoy it a whole lot i would like to see what kind of different color trucks there is out there we 3 yellow trucks 1 engine 1rescue and 1 tanker.
In my station most of the units are white with a red strip or black strip. If it belongs to the volunteers (2 pumpers) it has a black strip. If it belongs to the county (1 ladder truck, brush truck, ambulance, batt. chief SUV and pickup truck) it has a red strip. Our sub station everything there has white with red strip (1 pumper, heavy rescue squad, paramedic ambulance, basic ambulance, water rescue truck and pickup turck). Then we have two black unmarked Crown Vic chief cars for the volunteer chief and assit chief.
At one time we had two pumpers mosty black with white cab tops and white strips or mosty white with black trim.
We have have had black and white paint jobs on our volunteer owned units since the 50s up to now.
Our trucks are a cross between safety green and yellow... 1 Ladder, 2 Rescue Engines, 1 engine, 1 rescue/brush rig, and then our light medical rescue is white with yellow and black accents.
we have all red and white trucks. our comand trucks are white and our support service is white. we have 8 engines, 6 pumpers, 5 rescues. we use our engines for 1050's, house fires, car fires, water supply on grass fires, and medicals. our pumpers we use on grass fires, water supply for house fires and any thing big. our rescues are used for 1050's, medicals, grassfires,
