Old Mack Firetruck
Today there was an old B61 Mack red firetruck come cruising up behind me in Saskatoon. I looked to see if there was a parade coming as well but there wasn`t, it was still in service possibly. It was an open cab looking really nice and very shiny.

Are those the trucks with the rounded kind of nose on them? Either way those old trucks are nice, cool to see cruising around too!

No, this Mack didn`t look like it had ever been parked outside, not even over nite. It was spotless and very clean with mint chrome and flawless paint. Too bad it wasn`t an old Ford firetruck, Saskatoon had lots of Fords afew years back. The Fire dept. also has at least one nice white PSD supercab they use.
