Fire Truck In A Bad Way
posted (June 12, 2018)
It's no secret that the Fire Department is running around in some twenty, thirty, and forty year old fire trucks. It's the sad truth and recently one of the twenty year old ones was seen with a broken chassis. we asked about it:...

Reporter
"Sir, do you all have a fire truck with a broken chassis? We have seen a fire truck on social media making the rounds. But do you all, or is it your station that has the fire truck we've seen on social media that look like it is bowing and can't recite?"

Orin Smith
"The fire department is not a private entity and we serve the public. I would gladly invite you to all our stations is you would like and literally see what we have. In fact, the truck is there now. You can go and take a look at it."

We did look at the truck - and thanks to the work of the Fire Department it had been welded - which as you know is no fix for a broken chassis on such a heavy vehicle.
