Other features include vehicle extrication tools, LED compartment lighting, battery powered positive pressure exhaust fan and lighting, on-board hydraulic generator, numerous forcible entry tools, multiple pre-connected hose lines and a full compliment of medical equipment.

Engine 15

Engine 15 is a 2010 Sutphen pumper, featuring a 6 person cab, 1,500 gpm pump and 1,000 gallon tank. This pumper was purchased used from a department in Alabama, and upgraded to meet the needs of the community.  E-15 is equipped with all Class A equipment, medical gear and an Automatic External Defibrillator.  This truck replaced a 25 year old custom pumper.

Engine 151

Engine 151 is a 1995 International / E-One truck featuring a 1,250 gpm pump and 1,000 gallon tank, 5 person cab, 5kw generator and most essential firefighting tools including medical equipment. The top-mount pump panel offers a better view of the fire scene for the operator.

This truck is "first out" on most medical response calls, vehicle crashes, grass fires and similar non-structure calls. There is a 9,000 lb. winch that can be deployed from the front or rear, and is useful in many situations.

Rehab 15

Rehab 15 is a 2010 Ford Econoline 15 passenger van. Many hours of planning and preparation turned the unit into a fire ground support unit to assist in the health and safety of firefighters during emergencies. Firefighting is extremely exhausting, so Rehab 15 is equipped with specially designed equipment to cool firefighters, provide fluids for rehydration and monitor their vital signs.  The van has a custom slide out cargo area to help members get to the equipment they need, and to maximize cargo capability.

Deputy Chief 15

This 2017 Dodge Durango is assigned to the Deputy Chief.  It features VHF and 800 MHZ radios, including VIPER, command center in the rear cargo area and a full LED warning light package.  The vehicle carries a medical equipment and an AED.
