There are two recent additions to the fleet of fire fighting vehicles of California Rural Fire Protection District (CRFPD).
The newest vehicle of the CRFPD is a 2009 Ford F550 4X4. Special equipment on this truck includes front-mounted "turret gun" spray nozzle, a 400-gallon water tank, a 23-hp Darley pump, an auxiliary foam tank and a 12,000 pound winch. The "turret gun" can be controlled from inside the cab.
This truck was purchased with funds made available through FEMA's Assistance to Firefighter Grant.
