This Oshkosh T-6 ARFF Crash/Fire/Rescue Vehicle until last week was owned by a local city airport in our home State of Mississippi and used as an AARF (Aircraft Rescue & Fire Fighting) vehicle for use at the airport, was previously handed down/transferred from a much larger airport about 30 miles across the state line in Louisiana, used in this capacity since new and was taken out of commission in 2016 because a newer model was handed down. This Detroit Diesel Turbo V8 engine is strong with good oil pressure, not running hot, not slobbering or using oil, runs great with no leaks, issues or any type of warning lights on, Allison 5 speed automatic transmission shifts properly, brakes are good, most of the interior functions seem to work, AC is not cold, heat is hot, the interior and body of the vehicle are in good shape with decent paint, the tire condition is good and can clearly be seen in the photos! This vehicle and apparatus were specifically ordered and designed for a very specific purpose for airport use in emergency situations dealing with airplane/runway fires dealing with different types of combustible liquids and materials.
