Tanker 2 - Forestry Truck
Purchased used in 1999, this International 4900 was converted from a snow plow truck to what you see now. The work was done by Dependable Truck & Tank Ltd. in Brampton, Ontario.

This truck goes to every call with the exception of Mutual Aid, and Medical Assists.
Truck 7 - Medical Response Vehicle

This retired ambulance is now the primary vehicle for Medical responses. It was purchased in 2002 from Leeds Grenville EMS and refurbished.

It carries all of our medical gear which includes defibrillator, trauma kits, backboards, etc. It also doubles as a re-rehab area for all the firefighters. This truck responds to all calls provided there is enough manpower - this includes MVA's, structure fires, brush fires.
