Wassaic Fire District New 69-1

[markmets415 524]

After purchasing a 2005 Ford SUV from the J.H. Ketcham Hose Company a few years ago the Wassaic Fire District decided to purchase a new vehicle for the Chief. The Fire District purchased a 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab with a standard box from Knight Automotive in Plattsburgh, NY. We decided to buy a truck to be able to transport hose from a scene, portable pumps for flooding conditions if needed and most importantly to be able to have the turnout gear stored outside of the occupant compartment. I picked it up today and shot some photos. Lighting was installed by NYCOMCO in Poughkeepsie and graphics were done by Murasso Signs also from Poughkeepise. The 2005 Ford SUV has been assigned to the Deputy Fire Chief (me). A few shots taken from the NYCOMCO shop. Lightbar is all Red, with flashing takedowns and has a rear arrow stick, four grill lights, white LEDS located in the front fog lights and rear taillight upper area of red lens, red/blue LED in the clear backup park of the rear taillight area and intersection lights mounted under the mirrors, red/blue. Console contains a Dutchess County radio, Litchfield County radio, siren and light controls, three cigarette plugs and one double USB plug, inside the cab is also a 110 plug and the GM WIFI which the Fire District plans to keep for use on scene with the laptop or smartphone.
