MCB News - It Could Be Your Home They Are Protecting

by Tom Leckband - 

Recently we shipped out two trucks to the Moraga Orinda Fire District, just 20 miles east of San Francisco. This fire district is tasked with protecting much of the woodland area on the southern edge of the Napa Valley wine area. Recently, the national news has broadcast the destruction caused by recent and ongoing wildfires there. The trucks that we built for the fire district will become a critical element in their plans to combat future fires.

The Spitfire will be in the thick of it to help firefighters protect land and property.
The Air Unit will be on scene, out of the way of the fire, to provide a rehab area for the fire fighters. More importantly, this truck carries a diesel-driven air compressor and breathing air bottle fill station. By bringing the air compressor to the scene, the District can more quickly & safely support the effort of the firefighters in the field.

It drives home the importance of what we do, because it affects the ability of our customer to perform their job. We should feel proud that the high-quality trucks we build provide a vital service in the protection of lives and property.
