New tender for Crete Township
The Crete Township Fire Protection District, part of MABAS Division 27, recently welcomed a brand-new 3,000-gallon water tender into its fleet. The unit was custom-built by Alexis and is mounted on a tandem-axle Freightliner M2-106 chassis. It features a 500 GPM PTO pump and a striking flag graphic on the portable tank cover, making it both functional and visually impressive.
This new tender, designated as Tender 157, is designed to support firefighting operations by delivering a large volume of water quickly. The Freightliner chassis provides a solid and reliable base, while the Alexis build ensures high-quality construction and durability. The unit’s design emphasizes efficiency and ease of use for emergency responders.
The addition of this new tender strengthens the district’s ability to respond to emergencies, especially in areas where water supply may be limited. It also reflects the ongoing commitment of the Crete Township Fire Protection District to modernize and improve its equipment to better serve the community.
