Fire truck drives through an 11-foot flood.

Notice how the siren goes out when they are engulfed by the waters. Expedite trucks should be able to do this....lol!

Where the He** is the air breather mounted? I watched it 3 times and could not see it..Preety luck to get thru that,driver did a good job by keeping it moving.
Dont try it..Freind of mine just got a ticket for going thru water last week in Ohio. I beleive he said $175 fine..Charge was disobeying a traffic signal as he went around the road closed signs. (Yep his fault,,but ya cant tell him that)

I am floored that it made it though that. Wonder if it was junk the next day?

Some vehicles can be and are equipped with a snorkel kit as military trucks can be,,but I cant see it here. I'm sure the rad. was trashed and needed a good flushing.

Thats the good thing about diesels as long as the intake is above the water it will run. Keep in mind most fire service vecicals are heavily modified.

Holy crap - I love the door being opened after they emerged, to let the water out.

I would say it is junk unless everything electrical is built to be waterproof...could be? Of course, in a true emergency?

If you look closely as the truck passes the cam, the air intake is on the far side, between the cab and body. It extends above the cab of the truck.

I had an Isuzu NPR a few years ago the snorkel was on the right side at the roof.
