@Firefighter5130 Hmm, I believe you and I tried it on mapquest like you said but still got the same Plainfield that I did on Google Maps. Wierd. Anyways, no probs and it's easy to get confused coz shit has the same name.

@AussiePegasus I was not putting in Township, if you Just put in Plainfild see where that is, I'm still not sorry, for the things that you have said. Look at it on Mapquest and just put in Plainfield and see what I was seeing and see why I said what I did.

@Firefighter5130 Really? Well the map that I looked up shows that it's 1 hr 50 min from Harrisburg and only 24 minutes from Phillipsburg NJ. So I guess you really ARE that stupid, hence why you have zero map reading skills dumbass

[Firefighter5130]

@AussiePegasus Really, on a Map it's oh about 45 min from Harrisburg so how about you shut the fuck up.

@Firefighter5130 Plainfield, PA is right near the PA/NJ border. Hardly a 5 hour drive. Maybe check a map next time before you go shooting your mouth off.

Excellent tanker shuttle operation. Nice use of the hoes to open up the fire.

[Firefighter5130]

You said New Jersey came over, why would they drive like 5 hours to do what other fire departments in PA could have done

[smokeyburnout69]

Nope

[cmej605]
