Truck 101

I'm going to have to snap a pic of the city's new fire truck. Here's a cut-and-paste from the City Manager's weekly report:

"This week marks the first week of service for Monrovia’s newest fire truck, Truck 101. If you haven’t seen it, please feel free to stop by the Fire Station No. 1 to catch a glimpse of this very effective piece of equipment. Not only does the truck feature a 100-foot aerial ladder and a full assortment of ground ladders, but it also provides all of the necessary cargo space to allow our personnel to carry the appropriate urban search and rescue and vehicle extrication equipment that they need. I should also point out that we have some awfully handy people in the Fire Department, and they have been able to fabricate and install much of the needed compartment pieces for the truck at a significant savings to the City. Again, come on in and take a look because it’s an impressive piece of equipment."
