    Firefighters, let's see your Tacomas! Especially if you have some badass mods to accomodate the tools of the trade.

    I searched all over but cant find a thread with just trucks owned by firefighters.

    I recently joined my local fire department (probationary) and i would like to see what my next mods should be.

    Anything...Lights, Halligan/Ax Rack, Wheels/Tires (that never gets old seeing), hell even if all you have is just a decal.....

    I want to see some good light set ups. I am thinking about doing some lights when I get a new front bumper and rear bumper.

    Yeah his is nice, I am also thinking about getting one of the toppers he has... I like it and its functional, a whole lot cheaper then a fiberglass top.

    Right now my Tacoma is pretty stock, tinted windows and d-badged. I plan on putting a LT kit and many other mods, but will not make it a truck to respond to calls in. That is what an engine or truck is for. So I'm sorry but I dont have any light bars or tools mounted or radios in my truck.

    How about we show pics of engines and trucks from where all the FFs on Tacoma world work at? Just a thought......

    Yeah we only have about 3 trucks and a brush truck. Depending on size of fire, cant always make it onto a truck and have to go POV.

    Engine pics would be cool. I know most of the stations in our county and neighboring counties all seem to have different looking rigs (color, body style, decals, etc). Hell, even dude's above (red white blue) looks different than i've seen before.
