This is my biggest gripe with the County Fire Department. They were called out near us recently. Took over 15 minutes to get there with 1 truck. As previously stated in this discussion it takes modern rooms 4 to 5 minutes to become fully involved. So essentially if I had 911 on the phone while I set my trash can on fire, the first fire truck with 1 pump and 4 people would get there when 1/2 of my home was fully involved and the fire had started spreading into the attic. The house would be a total loss.
While I'm grateful for the local FD, i'm also realistic about the low population density and response time. And it sickens me to pay for 2 new fire trucks, a 1 Million dollar fire station, a station SUV, and 5 or 6 salaries knowing that even if they were given every advantage in the world, my home would still be a pile of ashes should a fire begin. Plus I have to pay increased home insurance rates. Again, its not the fault of the local FD, just the realities of the situation.
