OTHER INFORMATION
|
This idea was originally implemented with a used 4000 gallon oil tank as an experiment. After a couple of years of use it was decided that the concept worked well and a custom made 3000 gallon water tank was designed and built. The truck is in service as a tanker most of the time. It is used to haul refuse for the town about 2 days per week.
