    We have a 500 gallon tank, two hose reels and pump/motor and it rides like a dream. If you dont have the flatbed you should be able to mount at least 1000 gallons of water. Those Beds are heavy. http://halltownfire.org/images/Trucks/IMG_5672.JPG Rob

    We have had this truck in service for a while now and the 500 gallon tank, dual hose reels and pump weight have made this truck a dream to drive. It is slightly slower taking off but everything else has been great. I will upload recent pics soon.

    Mounting a Water Tank on LMTV The LMTV is our only choice since the FMTV's are not available. Most of the fire departments are using 400-500 gallon tanks on LMTV's distributed recently.
