SAR! High five!
I like the new truck.
Are you guys allowed to have lights and sirens on your vehicles out there? Out here in CO most teams have them.
Um, yes on the lights, I don't know about the sirens.
We are allowed to have amber lights, since we are all registered emergency services workers. It's just that I don't know anybody that has them. They are going to be installed on our new truck, but I don't know when we'd use them.
You see, we've never had a vehicle before, just a trailer that board members tow with a bunch of our group gear in it (snowshoes, radios,a couple of stokes, etc.)
We buy all our own gear, and when it comes to spending money on things for our vehicles, we tend to go for spotlights, high lifts, winches, etc. We're all volunteer, and pay for our own fuel, food, gear...lights come under "someday, after I get that nice Swamp Rat/new pack/laser light."
What do the CO teams run with? Any recommendations?
Heck of a truck, that Titan is...lots of legroom, even in the back seat.
