❄️🚒 Throwback to this past winter’s delivery to the Village of Mackinaw City Fire Department 🚒❄️

Their new Sutphen engine officially made its way home during some true northern Michigan weather. And before anyone points it out — no, this wasn’t a recent delivery… the snow on the ground definitely gives that away! 😄

We’re proud to have been part of bringing this new apparatus to the department and appreciate the opportunity to serve the Mackinaw City community. Stay safe and enjoy the new truck!
