Fire Engineering Training Community

Where firefighters come to talk training

My FD is currently writing the specs for a new heavy duty service truck. This truck will be used for: Service Truck, auto extrication, hazmat, lighting and refilling SCBA's. We are replacing a 1993 E-One that we have outgrown and overloaded. We have been looking at some trucks that incoporate a "command center" into the back seating area of the custom cab. Since we are planning for Hazmat we want an area for research but do not want to loose compartment space.
Does anyone have this type truck? What do you like? What do you dislike? Is there anything you would change?
I would like as many suggestions as possible to help determine what will work best for us.

Thanks
