2002 Pierce/Freightliner
This unit is pretty much what it's name say's! It's a Water Tanker. It hauls 1800 gallons of water and is usually utilized on large fire's such as structure fires and wildfire's. This unit works very well in a tanker shuttle operation (hauling water from water source to fire) because of its size and agility.
