Righto for the folks that like a challenge...Not including me (too easy)
Stirling has just received their new Rescue truck and should have also received a new Hilux!
Who will get the first photo's up of either vehicle?
1 Rule...if you're a member of the SES in the metro area, and we come and visit you (which we will) and you take a photo you cannot count that. So it needs to be out and about, at Stirling just as you're driving past or something like that!

You could always take a picture for us?

I saw it the other week but you lot were driving too quick in the opposite direction for me to get my camera out! Looks sweet as though!

it's taking quite a while...looks like I will have to take a camera across and pull the vehicles out for a few photo's!
What night was it on that you saw it? We might well have been operational at the time.

The truck came for a visit to Kalamunda last week.
Sorry, didn't get any pics.
It's certainly got some good features, although there has been vigourous debate over whether they are a suitable replacement for the landcruisers, particularly in the hills.

they're not meant as a full replacement to Landcruisers. We still have our land cruiser, they are aimed as a replacement to trucks i.e. unit's with the old Mazda's. Which in most cases were overloaded almost as soon as the pod went on the tray.
