Nice video, I like the blue fire engine and matching rear blue rotating lights.

[@LowHudEmergency]

Thanks! I noticed those blue rotators in the rear too, I thought that was pretty cool especially because this truck was designed before blue in the rear was all that popular, at least around here. Anyway, a brand new Sutphen was just delivered yesterday to replace this truck, and should be in service soon.

[@alexandernunez109]

Great catch! Love the old look of it

[@LowHudEmergency]

Thanks! Its replacement was just delivered yesterday, actually.

[@OklahomaEmergency]

Awesome catch! I'm a big fan of oddly colored rigs such as this one.

[@LowHudEmergency]

Thanks! Me too.

[@tricountyfirevideos]

Nice catch, sadly the new truck is practically complete. :(

[@LowHudEmergency]

Thanks! Actually, the new truck was delivered Friday, one day after I got this video. I'm not a huge Sutphen fan but I really like the gray-over-blue. I hope to catch it responding when it goes in service.

[@tricountyfirevideos]

Thought it was grey over blue, but I hope you do too.

[@LowHudEmergency]

Yes haha, my mistake.

[@nicholasyoung8017]

Nice catch. The rear lighting on that rig needs some help. Like the station too.

[@LowHudEmergency]

Thanks! Well its replacement was just delivered yesterday, actually, so I wouldn't hold your breath on the rear lighting lol.

Thank you!

[@centralnewyorkresponses7887]

We have a department in my county that has black and green trucks

[@LowHudEmergency]

That's cool. I always like the unique colors.

[@centralnewyorkresponses7887]

I know right

[@matthouseholder6928]

0:21 is that small bus used as a command unit?

[@LowHudEmergency]

No, I believe it is just used to transport personnel.

[@johnsobaski3478]

Cool rig

[@LowHudEmergency]

Thanks for watching!

[@LancasterResponding]

Aren’t they getting a new one soon?

[@LowHudEmergency]

It was just delivered yesterday, actually.

[@lalavegna]

Blue fire truck? WHY?

[@LancasterResponding]

In my county we got red, white/red, white, blue & white, yellow, black/red, gold/maroon, dark red, blue, white/maroon, white/yellow, lime yellow, black/lime yellow, white/lime yellow and orange

[@lalavegna]

Imho, rescue veichles shoud be painted with hi-vis colours, such as lime, yellow, orange, red etc. Red is internationally the colour of the fire, so, black, blue are good for a cadillac but not for a fire truck IMHO

[@EyeWatchThemAll]

Orange? You mean Lafayette FC? ;-)

[@lalavegna]

I really like them because of orange is really similar to red but it's also more hi-vis during emergency response

[@LancasterResponding]

EyeWatchThemAll Hell Yeah brother. My grandfather was fire police there when I was growing up.
