    AMi (M916 & M970) saved my parent house from a grass fire.

    I purchased/traded the M970 from M35A2-az and the M916 came from Ohio, specifically for water to fend off a fire until the real firemen can fight fire. Well today was the day she paid for herself. Last Monday, 19 Aug 19, I walked out on the porch before supper, happened to look to the North...

    So we went on another run earlier this week, only for a refill and just rough math in my head AMi gets about 4mpg at 55-58 mph. Also 55 is a bit slow going to a fire. She has no problems tanker yanking full to the top of water, so another .81 od behind an aux should get the top speed at 2100rpm...
