Dixie Volunteer Fire Department recently took possession of a new fire truck – a 2019 E1 Typhoon Custom Pumper, reports The Pine Belt News.
Meetings regarding the truck, which has a price tag of about $458,000, began about 18 months ago when members of the department sat down with E1 personnel to discuss the needs of the volunteer fire department.
The addition of equipment such as chain saws and extraction equipment pushed the cost of the truck to more than $600,0000.
