Quoting Jon D No problem man! It's a nice simple rig! I like it, it works well for a Quick Response Vehicle!

Thanks! It has its moments. But mostly it just waits for the tones to drop.

Quoting Jon D Harrison- He probably means not your average gasoline like jet fuel, it requires different fire fighting agents to fight it. So it's basically like a foam tender.

Yes Jon that's quite right. Thank you.

Quoting Harrison McNeill What do you mean by "Alternate Fuel"?

Well I don't understand it fully either but FDNY has some and I guess the carry Purple K for aircraft or fuel spill incidents that respond quickly to control the situation.
