Truck Colours - what is out there?

by Mark Montgomery

Here in New Zealand most fire trucks are red, but that is changing to a mixture red, blue and yellow (corporate colours).

Some rural trucks are wildland fire yellow, some are red and others are white.

Having looked at fire trucks around the world over the years there seems to be as many colours as their are trucks.

Tell what colour your trucks are and why?
