cicopo Goldmember  More info | Apr 13, 2009 15:14 | #1 Just looking at the comments re the post for Apopka Fire Truck & someone wants more photos so here's mine. Shot in Feb while walking into town in Cozumel, and I have no idea what age it is or model etc. We were ducked into a storefront waiting for a light rain to end.

Apr 13, 2009 16:24 | #3 Thanks very much. It seems that they think it's dead & gone so I've added a link to my photo to prove otherwise. I only took 2 photos of it and I'm guessing that it had been used for a parade we missed due to the wrong time having been posted on the "official" web site I used.

More info | Wow, can't say I have ever seen a 700 series with that much work, but still most of the original cab. Five Mile Point in the Binghamton area of New York had a 100' mid mount that had a complete rebuild in the late 80's. They replaced the whole cab with a century series. But man, it is 2009.

Apr 17, 2009 08:23 | #5 Again thanks for the help identifying it. Since then I have learned that it's still on the job doing what it was born to do, fight fires. This truck is part of the fleet in Cozumel, and none of the trucks are modern. A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.

Apr 19, 2009 20:23 | #7 Sorry, no. Next trip to Cozumel (I go at least yearly) I'll head to the fire hall & shoot anything on site. It was the first time I saw a fire truck on the island other than at the airport. A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.
