I wish you could see this private firm out of Marysville Ca. They have a rig in blue similar to the Oshkosh.

Tim, if you can post a link to some photos, or if they have a website, I'd appreciate it. I'm always looking for a new brush rig to build. Chuck

Chuck the company is North Tree Fire and their web
site is www.northtreefire.com. Have seen several of their units and all are blue in color.

Thanks for posting the link. I've seen that blue HEMTT(?) tanker before, but not the convertional tanker or the brush rigs. If I could locate a Code 3 resin HEMTT, and talk someone into making the decals, it would indeed make a great model.
