      @BenjaminEsposti 6 лет назад +6

      Rainman14,
      Look up videos of that truck. With good sized tires and a snorkel (raised air intake), they can literally plow through flood waters! Better yet, get a 5 ton and you'll be able to do almost anything. XD

    • @PoPofan98
      @PoPofan98 6 лет назад +3

      Benjamin Esposti no doubt about that. Our 6x6 trucks are always the first to roll on a wild land fire.

      Thats not a deuce and a half thats a 5 ton. The hood/grille, and central tire inflation system and large singles on the rear axles instead of duals give it away.

    Awesome video - you were in the right area to get all those good responses! Particularly of those Jeeps - really don't see Jeep brush trucks very often!
    I loved the ex-military CAFS truck, now that's something you really don't see very often ;).
    Cool video!

    • @ffjsb
      @ffjsb 6 лет назад +4

      There's a reason you don't see deuces used as fire vehicles much, they suck at it. Poor brakes, NO rollover protection, and A3's with CTIS have lots of problems with air leaks. Not to mention they're quite slow.

    • @Rainman14
      @Rainman14  6 лет назад +3

      @brandondierolf6812 6 лет назад +4

      I was driving brush 81 and i seen how the engine took the turn and wanted to have enough room to make the turn this truck doesnt have power steering and the tires were low so it made it harder to turn

    • @CobraEmergencyNorthAmerica
      @CobraEmergencyNorthAmerica 6 лет назад

      Brandon Dierolf That makes sense! 😃

    • @Rainman14
      @Rainman14  6 лет назад +2

      +Brandon Dierolf ah I see, I was wondering because the engine was longer so I would have thought you would have an easier time turning, but I’ll make sure to find s parking spot completely out of the way if there is a next time. When I parked I thought all the trucks would have been coming from the next block down so I thought I was out of the way.

    I had to laugh when I saw that ladder truck responding to this call. but if it works for manpower, then who cares. As for the sauce and a half, you can find a lot of those trucks in the state of Wyoming, because they will go anywhere you are willing to try and take them. And for us, that helps a lot.

    • @Rainman14

    • @scottdd2
      @scottdd2 5 лет назад +1

      Hi Luke, normally I'd agree with the over allocation of appliances in the US however a bush fire (scrub/brush fire) in the US and Australia are very different to ones in the UK.Temperatures over 35 degrees, dry hilly terrain, and as dmhpokey noted, urban interface, a large response is required.In Australia a large fire will have crews from all over the state come in on task forces and even interstate or international, as has been done for the US as well. These fires can burn for days and weeks and cover 1000s of hectares. Tankers also responded for water cartage.What I don't agree with is the use of open cab jeeps and kids sitting on the running plate of the pumper.Good video Rainman14

      Tim Attridge Ladder truck has more than a ladder lol. Extra Manpower and extra equipment. In my department (and most departments today) the ladder truck is also the main rescue truck. So it’s got tactical and rescue equipment. We send the ladder as the first response apparatus to car accidents also because of that. More info than you asked but I hear questions about “Why is a Ladder responding to this or that...” all the time.
