Well I have a hard time calling any KME a firetruck in the first place, but people call those OES rigs firetrucks... If it isn't a Pierce or Spartan it isn't worth taking to the fire!
Ohh!!! You know what, I gotta find a picture of the USFS trucks.... You like lime green???

Ack !!!! I see it Spontaneously Self-Combusted !!! I would too, if I were that color !!!I knew I had it in a file somewhere, this was published in a couple magizines too...
Keeps Mechanics Employed. LOL The first 2 yrs of my career I was on one. Well when it wasn't OOS
LMAO! The Gooberment decided that it was a non-intruding color and it wouldn't harm the animals, or at least that's what I was told!
Frank, get the II if you can, the regular Trooper is tall and likes to tip over with its narrow track. The II can get sketchy in steep country also, but being in Florida you don't have real hills to worry about! lol

LMAO!! We were down a reserve engine last year when our 1989 Arrow gave up the ghost. OES gave us the KME and I worked on it for 5 weeks straight, it never went into service the entire time it was here. And I couldn't pull any of the others for services or anything during that time. Luckly we got a nicer loaner from the next town over and then I could swap things in and out for repairs.
Thanks, yeah we have no hills at all but ant hills...lol even thought of a Rodeo
A 1990-1998 Mazda pickup might fit the bill. They make a 4x4 with a 4cyl. Its actually a ford ranger, but the price is MUCH lower. I can find the 2wd ones here for 1500-1800 all day, the 4x4s are harder to find, but they are out there for 2000-2500

Well... for now, my "huntin' rig" is also a daily driver. M'be less so, now that I've got one of my other rigs squared away and runnin' good.
'90 Dodge Dakota (2WD) with a V6. It's got a posi-rear in it, so it's as good as most of the "4x4" rigs in my area. I have NO idea WHY... but they order 'em with open diffs. "?" May not be the greatest on gas... but not having a truck payment goes a LONG ways towards balancing things out. Purrs like a kitten and still runs clean. About the ONLY thing NOT working on this truck, are the power mirrors (plastic gears are stripped). Just had the air-conditioning converted to 134A and fully charged... and with 178,000 miles on it, it still holds its own.

There cheap cuz there like setting in an airliner now, I have to buy two seats to fly, one for each cheek. I cant even get in a toy truck anymore.
