The newest addition to the fleet is Rescue 3 replacing the 1989 C-9000 Ford that we had, that truck went to Brownsville FD. Our new one is a 2016 Ford 550 Rosenbauer Commander with a two-person cab and a three-person crew compartment which can hold three packed up firefighters at overall height of 9’4”. It has a 150-gallon tank with a hi pressure/foam pump. It has a light tower, extraction equipment, is set up for rope rescue and has airbags. It also is outfitted with an interior hydraulic system to run all the tools. It has already proven itself as an extrication asset, it has a complement of tools, cribbing, winch and winch points and other necessities for rescue.
