Top Issues Facing Responders:

My biggest issue is im sure a common one, city doesn't enjoy paying for the equipment we need, we have four trucks, two from the 70's one from the 80's and thanks to some brilliant money saving from chief our other 70's brush rig that had been out of service just got replaced by an 04 dualie monster that we are all grateful for, and now we face that it doesn't fit in our grass rig station.
