We've had a few blowing flames out the stack here on the service track but not like that.

Alot depends on how much water you carry, my dept has a 923 with 1500 gal on it and a 931 with 600 on it both on duels. our experience with singles is on our m35a3 (600gal) we had alot of tire issues mostly side wall damage we switched it to duels a month ago and it drives alot better down...

Here's the latest build for the FD.

Wow cleaning the dungeons of sd40s in the 70s with no air maybe I shouldn't complain. lol We have a few old emds as yard switchers and hump engines. Alot of the consists come in and you know they only clean the leader and motors from other roads are usually the worst. Sure glad their removing...

Try being one of the poor guys that has to clean that mess. Me laborer Tulsa Diesal Shop:?

We have 1. Only problem we have is tires and we're probly harder on it than we should be but they are a good slow speed off road truck. 600 gal. is enough to be effective but not over loaded. Just make sure anyone that drives it is well trained they are different to drive than any other truck...

Here's one of my dad with one of two my fd had in the early 80s.

Awesome truck! My fire dept has one we love it.

Does the 927 have the single tires on the back? My dept looked at one in goldsby but decided against it too much truck for singles. I love the 923 we did get though. Would like to have a 925 for the winch.

Any updates on the resto? would love to see pics.

They went somewhere for target practice.

I was surprised that they were gone not sure who hauled them because the yard down there doesn't even have the money to get trucks for giving to fire depts. All the trucks on the old loaner program that come back are going straight to sale.

My captain and another firefighter were there last week getting parts for our 923 and said they are all gone.

I hear that its been a busy year for us too we spent last week fixing trucks from the last round of fires. we have a 5 ton that was pretty much totaled body wise during the spring fires (I won't post pics because i would get yelled at on here). Only problem is that surplus is not getting any...

Yeah I like the black and red too. The green truck is a 91 and only has 20000 miles on it so its still new and we also have a 2010 freightliner engine so it doesn't get used a whole lot now.
