[4106650464]

whats the difference between running hot and running cold

[zaffdoc]

@4106650464 >>>---> Cold - drive obeying all traffic laws with out emergency lights or sirens. Hot - responsing as fast, but safe as possible with emergency lights and siren.

i love your videos bud. its a blast from the past. i wish things were the same as they were back in the day. the feeling of riding to a call balls to the wall in a freezing blizzard on the back tail board is un describable. purely undescribable..

You mentioned the rig was underpowered. I remmeber as a kid a company near me had a '65 Ford C-Series/Bruco Heavy Rescue that had a 360 V-8 gas and the same could be said for that rig too. Another company near me had an identical rig with a 534 and that had A LOT more guts. Both unfortunately have long since been retired.

lol we got a truck some what like it it could be a ford i think it is its still in service

[RDG484]

Nice Ford. Going to my Ford C-series playlist.

Cool.....There`s the exact same engine still in service in Durand MI. We have a post at their station. That`s one really cool, really old truck. It`s their second out engine.......lol......Well, they only have 2...It`s a small city, all they cover is the Village itself..

[fire904]

Are you sure? Because that engine Durand has is an Ford/FMC instead of a Ford/ALF.
