PHOTOS: The Fire Trucks from Davis Volunteer Fire Department turn heads when they pull up to the scene. Of the current fleet of vehicles at the Fire Hall, three are as comfortable at a car show as they are at the forefront of a call. Davis VFD Chief Alan Cosner and his crew have worked hard to keep their fleet in use, including several antique vehicles. “I like to keep the older trucks because they are so much better built,” Cosner said.
The latest item of maintenance in the fleet is the replacement of a steel tank with a custom poly tank on the fleet’s 1977 Pierce Class A Pumper Truck. According to Cosner, Pro Poly in Davis is using the the existing steel tank to create a mold to form the new poly tank for the truck. The new tank is required due to a leak that has developed in the steel tank, according to Cosner.
