In the winter months, my wife turns on the heated seats, and then very convincingly 'recommends' that I go out myself and get whatever we came here for. :)

No, I think they're competing to see who can shop for the longest without their husbands driving away and leaving them there to take an Uber home!

Keeping the white stripe would be cool and one could always have a generic type shield made up and call it a "tribute car". Instead of Fire Chief, have it say Big Chief or Big Cheese or Head Honcho, something to have fun with and generate smiles.

When we first got ours, my kids wanted to put Presidential Seals on the doors.

Already a firefighter so I don't need a tribute car. I'm taking off the striping so that's it just red. Might wrap it midnight blue or silver down the line.


The bigger question is the engine hours/idle hours. Fire department vehicles can sit on the scene and idle for hours at a time.

81k miles, gonna check the idle hours in a bit.

Well she's home! Time to get started on removing her decals, and cleaning her up. First things being done are tint and a radio upgrade to a Sony double din.redhoe.jpg

For now, they might be coming out as I'm probably adding a Westin pushbumper with full wraps. For now they'll be switched to ION DUOs in blue/white.

Been a while since I've posted. Been doing a good amount of work to her. Changed the factory radio to a Sony radio w/ Android Auto. Added the Westin pushbumper, and started equipping her with my lighting package. Here she is a couple days ago with a recent build we did that is almost her twin.
