    Love those Sutphen rigs and the yellow. Rescue 75...you had that turn easy. No need to reverse.
  • the rescue in particular didn't need to back up, if you pause at 3:43 you'll see there was about 3-5 feet from the curb to his front wheel, he for sure could have made the turn.

    When I started in 1973 ,one of our Instructors stated: "There is no such thing as a bad volunteer fire company....just some are so much better than others!"
  • Love the yellow livery on those engines very unique you see the greenish yellow rigs a lot. But these bright yellow ones are rare

    Time to either modify/move the station or get the far shoulder of the road widened so the trucks can get out of the station easier. Great video and nice looking trucks.

    The older truck in the middle is awesome. I love older fire trucks still in use
  • @Rummeltobi

  • @glock22shooter
    There's just something beautiful about a Sutphen Mid Mount.
  • You don't often see yellow fire trucks in America, these looked wonderful. All your videos are excellent, please keep them coming. Greetings from England.

  • @kenwhite6362
    You guy better get road widen have to back up every time you go out is crazy
  • @911ERV
    Tight turns for those trucks! Very nice video

    Never seen Orange lights on a fire engine before. And it's unusual to have blue ones on the rear too. Also I believe motorists who fail to yield to emergency vehicles should receive a ban, a fine and a good kicking.
