Hi @MrJamminguitar! Thanks for the comment and I hope we can answer this for you. The Alameda Sheriff's department attends to many different calls and this truck, The SUPER 6™ can be a jack of all trades for them. A Sheriff's Department may need a fire truck for several reasons, especially in rural or remote areas where resources can be limited: Wildfire Response: In regions prone to wildfires, Sheriff's Departments may need fire trucks to assist in suppressing fires, especially when fire departments are spread thin or response times are delayed. Rescue Operations: Fire trucks often carry specialized rescue equipment for vehicle extrications, water rescues, and other emergency situations that Sheriff's Departments may need to respond to. Search and Rescue: Fire trucks equipped with water tanks and high-pressure hoses can be valuable during search and rescue missions in difficult terrain, providing critical fire suppression capabilities when helicopters or other resources aren’t available. Community Support: In smaller or underserved areas, Sheriff's Departments may take on additional roles, including first response to fires, before local fire departments can arrive. Disaster Relief: In large-scale disasters, like earthquakes or floods, Sheriff's Departments can use fire trucks to assist with recovery efforts, moving debris, or securing water sources. Fire trucks can give Sheriff's Departments added capability in emergencies where public safety and quick response are essential. I hope that helps in understanding why a Sheriff's department may need a truck of this stature. Thanks again for the comment!
Very unique truck, have you guys ever thought of doing something on the 650 chassis? Seen a few pumpers, rescues and brush trucks with the body of a 650, pretty interesting and particuarly appeals to rural midwest towns from what I've seen.
Hi Panda man, thanks for the comment. We've only done a couple of 650 builds in the past, but agree with you that it's a great platform for a build. Right now our backlog of 550s is pretty deep, but as we start to get through that it'll be worth revisiting our 650 designs. Thanks!
Thanks for your comment! We chose the 48" lightbar because it fit the specific needs and profile of this vehicle, and it works well with our setup. The surface mount Ions are a deliberate choice for their versatility and compact design. We appreciate the feedback, though, and always look at ways to improve our builds!
Nice truck, looks very functional.
Why does a Sheriff's Department need a fire truck?
A waste of taxpayers money!!! $250,000 waste.

@@qtacfire Well then, thank you for your time and good luck with those orders!
Perfect truck ❤
Do you guys just selling in United State market or you can do international shipping
You gotta give some to us here in Kentucky it's starting to get a little smokey
all those surface mount Ions (too cheap to use T ions) and you still use the wrong size lightbar... 48" is for cars, 54" is for trucks....
