Now, that is what a Big Mack is all about; and, truth in advertising....

BTW - what is the "looped ribbon", painted/magnetically stuck, on the Air Filter Cannister, for ?

"Support our troops" / "Breast Cancer"/ ?

Increasingly common, to see these magnetic ribbons - supporting a cause or charity - stuck on vehicles.

A great rig.

'Parkhill' doesn't match the 2-part name, over 'FIRE DEPT.', on the cab-door....

Anyone have any info, on this big Tanker ?

North Middlesex, Parkhill Station......thanks Bill.

What a welcome sight, at any rural fire-scene - this rig rolling up with all that water....4,000 Imperial Gallons Water = 4,805 US Gallons = 18,185 litres....

The Readers here, are from all over the world, and different ages of measurement-thinking; so I converted your numbers for them.....
