Notable
history:
8316 was the first due engine from 1990 to
2000.
First Engine purchased by the Vigilant Fire Co. with a fully
enclosed cab.
8316 is a favorite of many of our company
chauffeurs for its easy driving and handling. A sentimental
favorite for many of the active members as it was the first due
engine when they entered the fire company in the 1990s. Its the
fire engine with which many of us fought our first fire and its been
used primarily for training since it moved to second due in 2000.
