I still wonder why Gwinnett needs a tank. I hate that thing.

You should've seen it when Butch first got it. It looks totally different now!

Yeah, I remember when we first got that thing. UGLY! And I'm aware that it was given to us, but still. It seems to be a money pit. So is the other one. That thing has been a nitemare! lol

I just realized that they have "SO165" on the tank. That's Kenneth Wimberly's SO number. How cool is that??

Not sure why the 3048 though. Anyone know if that number has any significance?

It's not a tank, it's an armored personnel carrier. It was "free" but has had to be upgraded to meet the needs of today's call outs. Whatever the cost, it has saved lives so it's well worth the expense. I love the addition of the camera system. How cool is that - I understand that it will be able to beam pictures to the new command center. Outstanding! Cool

the 3048 is the unit number. We use that at the shop to look up the history on the vehicle of work done at Fleet, or we use it to write it up for work to be done. Its a Fleet thang! Laughing
