Fire Trucks also have lots of hitting power. They can send smaller vehicles flying and will make short work of getting through [[Enforcer]] baricades. When ramming, it is best that you get the Fire Truck to top speed for maximum hitting power. Most vehicles can be push out of the way by the Fire Truck. | Fire Trucks also have lots of hitting power.

Unlike the hose variant, the ladder variant dosen't recive any exterior damage except for the headlights which will brake, however this dosen't change the vehicle at all. It is also worth noting that the ladder variant is enabled to use the [[Pay N' Spray]], allowing the player to repair the vehicle. Other than that, it really dosen't have a use as the ladder is not interactive. | ||
