That's the only ranger patrol vehicle I've seen with a spotlight like that, in a good number of parks rangers are allowed a certain amount of leeway in customizing their vehicles, I know one ranger that has just 2 grill lights and one little dashlight in his rig (and two lights in his backglass) and other rangers with full exterior light bars and full interior light bars.

@ LAD23DER, Fred03
Thanks for the info. I'm probably going to add a spotlight, but will live the bed and winch as it is - after all, I made this unit following the existing Silverado's looks, but not copying it. NPS would be on-map units, so they probably should feel at least a little unique in comparison to the real units.
Oh, and also my Silverado has different fog light placement (more centered) and the livery is a bit different.

@Bugi007
Thanks

I've seen many rangers have those spotlights on vehicles.

The thing in the bed looks like a headache rack to me

I believe headache racks are a bit more visible in side/front shots.

Although maybe this particular isn't. If you could fix the photo, I may look into it.

If you include the forestry plane in the mod here is a pic of tanker 911 working a forest fire in Oregon

Thanks, I'll definitely consider this.

Damn that thing is enormous. Did they just convert an airliner into it?

And that is a 737 or 747 to answer the mini-writing

Yeah, I'm not much of an aviation expert. Civilian, at least. Airplanes, at least. :D But doesn't the cargo liners have no passenger windows? This way, it will be a passenger liner convert, which is kind of odd.

Also, 737, I believe.

Might wanna just stick with the USFS plain if you don't feel like reskinning it, the USFS would be there and would be deploying air tankers most likely if the fire got that big.

But I've already made an NPS firehouse. And an NPS Fire/Rescue unit is in late stage of development. Also, I like NPS livery over the USFS one.

Oh, and tanker is off-map unit anyway, so it can be considered off-map support, as well as actual USFS ground units.

Good point, I've only seen one or two mods re-texture it anyways.

I actually am a plane expert and you guys were waaaaaaaaaayyyy wrong. Its a DC-10 or an MD 11. 737 only have 2 engines and are much shorter. As you can see, that plane has 3 engines, 2 on the wings and 1 on the rudder/tail. They are used mostly for cargo and the 747 are really big and are built for long flights. They have 4 engines, 2 on each wing. Here are some pictures.https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS8kEgEcjX1_1FIDJ2SJ8y36Ub6nYmxl6QrSE-3cGFUZjLcWwxI

Here are some pictures of the MD-11

Both of these planes. Heres the difference they have.

Thanks, I was just making a guess, as a nonplane expert.

This is a DC-10, working for 10 Tanker Air Carrier out of Albuquerque.
