What is the Oldest Fire Apparatus You Have In Service In Your Department?
In the department I belong, we have a 29 year old American LaFrance Ladder Truck. You would never know that by looking at it, and it is still in great machanical shape as well.

Do you have any pictures of your trucks that you can share
with us. I use to drive a 1982 Seagrave 100' aerial many years ago.
It was a great truck. Again, if you have any pic's you can share, we would
like to see them. Until then, Besafe out there Brother.

The oldest piece that is still inservice for my department is a 1976 Dodge Power Wagon (see profile pic). It is totally custom (the only one in the world). It used to be an Attack Truck but they foolisly converited it in to a Brush. But the oldest picece we have is an old hose cart from when is unknown it's probably from the late1800's right after being a bucket brigade

The 1976 Dodge Power Wagon looks great. It sure dosen't look 33 years old. I see
you must take good care of it. Thanks again, and stay safe out there Brother.
