ParmBrick Posted January 8 Hi guys! Today I want to show you my new fire truck, a European style fire truck, hope you like it! The Evee Urban Fire Fighting Vehicle 3, or UFFV-3, nicknamed "Land Whale", is a state-of-the-art European-style fire truck supplied to the Lego City Fire Department. It's a heavy vehicle equipped with 7 compartments, and a spacious interior, which can accommodate 5 fully equipped men. It's equipped with 2 fixed fire hoses and a fire lance on the roof, which can be piloted from the cockpit. It has large internal compartments which house a vast range of accessories. This vehicle was designed to operate in urban, city or suburban environments, given its compactness and equipment. It features a hybrid engine, which moves the vehicle, plus a heat engine to power the on-board systems. This motor is able to generate approximately 5 kW, which powers a 3 kW headlight column and two additional 220 V sockets to which it is possible to connect the electric pump, a spotlight or anything else that requires electricity to function. The internal tank is 3000 litres, plus a 400 liter foaming tank. Finally, it is equipped with a hydraulic connection to be able to power additional hydraulic accessories supplied. This vehicle can generally be seen towing an emergency dinghy trailer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jpx Posted January 11 This is a very cool firetruck! A lot of details, just like in the real version 👍 Its very cool that all doors can open, and you have the gages for pressure also. This vehicle should be part of every lego city! Only critique is the axe and the yellow fire extinguisher on the outside of the truck is prehaps not needed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I specifically wanted to keep those external details to recall the style of the fire trucks produced by Lego, but obviously from a more realistic perspective, as you meant, these are completely superfluous and inconsistent with everything else.

Feuer Zug Posted January 12 Brilliant fire truck. Not only does it have plenty of external details, but the compartments open and are fully stocked. The new yellow works great as a hi-visibility stripe too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
