Carrot River has welcomed a a custom made $485,000 Rosenbauer FX GM pumper, reports Yahoo News.

The pumper was assembled on a 2020 international HV507 four-wheel drive chassis and had its features custom selected by the town’s fire chief Bryce Lytle.

Custom features include: a front mounted bumper turret for extinguishing wildfires, a rear compartment booster reel, and a top mounted enclosed pumper with a 1,250 gallons per minute pump with a FoamPro 1,600 straight injection foam system.

The new truck sits five crewmembers. Their retired 1992 pumper had enough seating for three crew members, which was further limited to two due to the gear shift layout.

The Texas A&M Forest Service has provided a 1986 Oshkosh AS32P19A truck to the Rio Bravo Volunteer Fire Department, reports LMTonline.

The truck will mainly be used for brush fires and structure fires. A fire official said that the truck will be essential to use in narrow areas where the city’s fire engine cannot enter, especially along the riverbanks or inside ranches.

The truck was provided after the city’s application for the Rural Fire Department Assistance Program (HB 2604) was approved by the agency. The fire department will be able to use the truck after registering it with the city.
