The truck is a brand new 2019 Ford F350 extended cab truck with custom outfitting by WildFire out of Alvarado, Texas. The truck is four wheel drive and has a 300-gallon tank fitted to the one ton chassis.  

The truck is capable of pumping 350 gallons per minute and will replace a truck owned by the Arkansas Forestry Department that's insured and maintained by the city. The older truck, a 1985 model, will move to Station 3 on County Road 27, where it will continue service.

The new truck cost approximately $91,000, according to Mountain Home Fire Chief Ken Williams who said the price was good considering such trucks can cost $121,000 or more.

Princeton police Officer Jorge Narvaez has just done it again. 

A one-time Colonial Fire Co. engine - which was operated as Ladder 18 - is in Central America, Narvaez's second such fire engine donation project in three years. 

It arrived recently, shown in the photo above, on a U.S. military plane through a program in which humanitarian aid can travel to other countries on military planes.
