Cab-Over Engine vs. Conventional Truck: Which Do You Prefer?

Emergency Vehicle Innovation at the 2018 OAFC

We attended the largest fire and emergency trade show in Canada a couple of weeks ago, and it was a pleasure to see innovation at work in the ever-evolving emergency vehicle landscape. While the types of vehicles and equipment on display varied, there was one concept in particular that caught our eye: the Halrai vehicle. Developed in partnership with the MTC and Halrai, this innovative and cost-effective concept is designed as a flexible platform that can be adapted for multiple transportation uses.

It also happens to be completely fitted with our LED lighting solution, the Luma Bar.
