Final got a chance to look under the hood of one of these firetrucks. Powerful engine! I didn't really pay attention to the brand at the time but I think this might be a Cummings Engine. See Cummings Engines. Not sure on the speed or torque power.
Delta County Michigan relies heavily on volunteer firefighters. There are paid firefighters in the City of Escanaba and Gladstone as part of public safety but a significant portion of rural firefighting and support services come from volunteers.
All of the fire departments, whether volunteer or paid, could use donations and support in helping them achieve their goals. They do an excellent job with what they have but some new equipment (i.e. grass truck and battery powered Jaws) would be helpful.
