I like it!!! It does look different though. Is this a new service that y'all are adding to the department, or is theis a replacement truck?

The Special Hazards truck (Tolland County designation) is one of the units the state purchased in "bulk" to support the state operations plan. It joins sisters in UCONN and Vernon in our area in addition to areas listed in previous replies.

"Freightshaker" would not have been my first choice either, but the unit has a lot of power, would be comfortable on a long haul, and was essentially, well, free.

There were no limitations placed on use by the state, and the truck and trailer were titled to us. We only had to install local radios and letter it.
