fire dept Excursion

Hey everyone. Thought you might wanna' see what our light rescue looks like. She's on '03, currently with 15k. We've had a few issues, but overall a great rig.

Nice light rescue rig! A long-time friend of mine is the fire chief in Lebanon, Ohio. They use an '04 Excursion as a mobile command center.

Yea, they're killer duty rigs. My only complaint is Ford doesn't offer them in a "service package" (higher and/or dual alts, hd brakes, etc).

What snow tires do they use?
There's no external antennas on that rig -- just hand-held radios?
Aside from paint and a light-bar, do they have a standard set of modifications or upgrades? It looks like stock suspension. An inside pic or two would be interesting.


Cheers,

Looks like F-450 front fender flares

Great rig.
Do you know if those are F-450+ front fender flares.
My 05 Excursion is in dire need of some 2"+ wider fender flares to keep the 36" x 14.50 x 18" Nitto terras from spraying the truck so badly.
I've been considering the F-450+ front flares.
Anyone have any luck with rear flares 2"+ besides cut out types
