Gaijin Fireman

There are times when I question if the purchases I make are valuable or not. Like importing a small fire truck from the USA to Japan. I just felt the need to have the one-of-a-kind item. Sure I could have just bought an old FORD Truck and done close to the same thing. But why just be different when you can appear to be boderline insane?

You may also ask. What the hell would you do with a fire truck? The simple answer is… Become the Gaijin Fireman of Nagoya! People somtimes sneer at this. Some even make disparaging statements. Some wiser people ask how the hell would I fight fires in a country where I can’t read the language?

Easy.

They were nice enough to put it in English, anticipating the need for a brave English-only hero.
