The First Response All Call vehicle from Crimson Fire features a modular design to provide a choice of firefighting, rescue, patient transport and command functions in a single apparatus. The new model was introduced at Fire-Rescue International in August.

“Our customers are telling us that rising fuel prices, tight budgets, fewer volunteers and continued regulation will force them to look for lower-cost and more flexible trucks in the future,” said Kevin Crump, president of Crimson Fire. “The modular design of the FRAC allows the truck to be configured in different ways to deliver multiple capabilities.”

The new model is built on a Ford F-650 chassis and offers customers a choice of any two of the four available modules for the body. The pump module may be mounted in the middle of the vehicle or at the rear and includes pumps to 1,250 gpm and tanks to 300 gallons with 200-plus cubic feet of storage and an advanced compressed air foam system. The rescue module offers 300-plus cubic feet of storage with optional hydraulic rescue tool systems and generators. The transport module is designed as a fully functional BLS or ALS ambulance with a cot, EMT bench and medical equipment storage space. The command module includes a command work station with a secured, centralized operations area and multiple storage cabinet options.
