"They're all short, why is that?" "Because they're all Italian" "That's like the shortest engine company in the whole city" PRICELESS!!!!! You FDNY guys kill me. Stay safe brother, great videos!!!
They still aren't. Since 2017 many companies have been procuring Q-sirens or Model 28's to mount on their rigs. They just take them off before the rig goes down for maintenance. Even Squad 1 and Rescue 1 use them, right in the middle of downtown. The Fire Commissioner knows that too, but ask anyone if they really care. Only a handful of actual NYC residents give a shit I think; most would rather hear the glorious sound of a mechanical siren.
Great video!! I was scared crapless most of the ride - even with 186 Truck in the lead! Gotta love NYC drivers, though they mostly get out of the way as soon as possible. Not like Mid-town. And the kid going into ToysRUs - he's so jaded he wont even turn around to look at the third (!) piece of apparatus pulling up. What's wrong with him?! I'd be galloping down the sidewalk to see what the other pieces were, and to check out the action - and I'm almost eighty. Little brat.

Back when the FDNY wasn't afraid to use sirens and horns because they weren't worried about noise complaints lol.

not 186 (no such unit) but Ladder 166, quartered with Engine 318 and located at West 25th Street and Neptune Avenue in Coney Island
Loved hearing the Detroit diesel 50 engine
THE PA-300 😍
I LOVE FDNY ENGINE 245 AND LADDER161
Thats ladder 165
245 is in with 161 not 165
Wow what a rush these guys must get at what incredible things they do in the font
Geeze, the asshole with the ladder on top of his truck just wouldn't get out of the way at all for the whole latter half the video! :P haha
They dont know if they want to run the siren or not

Hi
Toy's R Us 😢😭
Please get a real siren
Unlike your weak af Powercalls.
But hey your opinion, so go off
this video was taken over a decade ago.
PA300 is one of the best sirens around
@@kjack61 Yes sir it is.
No Q???
FDNY don't have Qs with the exception of a few trucks but that's it. The maintenance shop will confiscate them if you put one on a rig.
Some of the FDNY Rigs has a Q but this one doesn’t because it’s a older rig
Very Super video.
This ride along wasn't as funny as the movie Ride Along. Just sayin'............
