This 1984 Chevrolet K30 started it's life as a military ambulance at the Air National Guard Ethan Allen Air Force Base in Burlington. It was later purchased by the Rutland City Fire Department. There, the ambulance body was replaced with a utility body. The Pittsford Volunteer Fire Department purchased the truck from Rutland City and used it for several years before we purchased it in the early 2000s. This truck contains tools and equipment to be used on wildland fires and motor vehicle accidents, primarily.
This 1998 Chevrolet 7500 was purchased new by the department in 1999. It has a water carrying capacity of 1500 gallons and houses portable water tanks and large hoses for water supply.
Originally owned by the West Rutland Fire Department, this 2006 Ford F-550 is equipped with a 500 GPM pump and can hold 300 gallons of water. Additionally, it has a deck gun and a large wildland fire hose reel. This small attack truck is our go-to for any hard to reach locations in Chittenden.

This 2019 Kenworth T370 is the department's newest fire apparatus. With a 1,000 gallon water tank and a 1,250 GPM pump, this fire engine can tackle just about any incident. It has all the necessary equipment for any kind of fire, including wildland and chimney fire equipment, as well as hundreds of feet of different kinds of hoses for both water supply and fire attack for structure or car fires.
This Polaris Ranger 6x6 is primarily used as our wildland firefighting vehicle. It carriers a small pump, water tank, and hoses in the bed for fighting wildland fires in even the most remote parts of Chittenden.
