Dennis RS probably a 133 as most popular spec but depends on drive line fitted . Take your pick ! T = turbocharged RS130 - Perkins V8-540 engine with Turner T5.400 manual gearbox RS131 - Perkins V8-540 engine with Allison MT643 automatic gearbox RS132 - Perkins V8-540 engine with ZF S6.65 manual gearbox RS133 - Perkins V8-640 engine with Allison MT643 automatic gearbox RS134 - Perkins TV8-540 engine with ZF S6.65 manual gearbox RS135 - Perkins TV8-540 engine with Allison MT643 automatic gearbox RS137 - Perkins V8-540 engine with Allison MT643 automatic gearbox Many fire fighters still mourning the death of Dennis Fire Engines as current Merc/Scania / Volvos just converted delivery trucks. -- Last edit: 2015-05-15 09:42:32 |

In sweden Volvo/Scania fire trucks are built on a crew cab chassis built by Scania/Volo, and then a builder like Sala, Floby or another fire/rescue vehicle builder build a fire truck on it, so it is never converted, but built as a fire truck from scratch, on a Scania truck chassis. -- Last edit: 2015-05-17 16:21:25 |

Same in UK , I know Volvo/Scania have 'fire truck' chassis cabs in their range but these were built as a fire truck from the ground up by Dennis. |
