For the men and women of Gibraltar Fire and Rescue in Fish Creek, Wisconsin, 37 years of reliability is what it’s all about. But one of the oldest members of the fire service doesn’t bunk up with the rest of the crew at night – it’s parked in the station. Until recently, Gibraltar’s 1974 Dodge truck served its team with the authority that Dodge drivers have come to count on. Chief Jon Stahl and his apparatus committee just upgraded to a new 2011 Ram 5500 Cummins Turbo Diesel based on its proven track record. Understanding just how critical it is to have a dependable vehicle, Chief Stahl is pleased with the brute force and dependability his new Ram provides. As he says, when the crew is off road, the truck is their lifeline. Now it’s time for the 1974 Dodge to rest its tires and let the new guy do the work.
