Firetruck technology has come a long way compared to the old fire engines of long ago.

This firetruck's powered roof split open to reveal access to more fire fighting equipment - much like the robots in the movie series "Transformers".

For firefighters, these are the normal tools of the trade but if you like mech gear stuff with a multitude of buttons, control panels, levers and a ton of compartments, you would have have been in heaven that evening.
