Fire Truck Brand Spotting Guide
I've really gotten into photographing fire trucks and collecting diecast replicas of fire trucks the past few years. If you enjoy looking at fire apparatus like I do then you might find this guide helpful. It is by no means a complete guide. My interest is primarily current trucks, and especially those located in my area, Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas. After some experience and much help from some friends also interested in this odd hobby, it's much easier to know what brand and some cases model an engine or truck is by looking at things like the grill, curves, company emblems, and so on. I know, if you can see the company emblem, what more do you need to know? I guess it's just cool to be able to pick out a truck from a distance or in a not-so-good photo. Anyway, on with the trivia.
