Larger air tank for a Deuce

[FireFighterHill]

500 dollars is not much to add to a 150,00-300,000 dollar firetruck. I have seen the breakaway plugs as well. The breakaways are nice if your forget to unplug but you could still do damage the outlet or line. I doubt there is a CHEAP fool proof solution.
