Universallöschfahrzeug
This is my idea of a usable fire engine in singleplayer, combining Stormworks features like the ambulance compartment in the back of the cab and a somewhat realistic truck chassis/euro fire engine.
ULF directly translates to universal extinguishing vehicle.

Instructions
Turn on breaker right behind the cab.
Start engine with the key and release handbrake in the center console.
Wait for air pressure to reach 40 for the brakes to release and the alarm to stop.
Shift gears with 3 and 2 (mapped to shift with number buttons on the mouse, sorry if you don't have any).
Be carefull on rough terrain and steep inclines, due to the suspension the truck will bottom out and burst in flames.
I recommend setting the cruise control to 80 on sawyer, keeps the truck controlable and the suspension can handle most of the roads safely.
When the truck is left parked for a long time in carreer mode, switch the breaker back off, the automatic heater will drain the battery otherwise. Next to the breaker is a direct battery connector to charge the battery or start the truck with a dead battery.
If you want to load the truck onto anything with the Unicon H4 connectors underneath, enable them with the button on the chassis behind the cab.
Incase you crash or damage the front of the truck, keep an eye on the engine temperature, if it rises to 90° Stop and replace radiator hoses.
Pump Operation
Activate the PTO button in the centre console, make sure you're in neutral.
Jump on the runningboard on the back, using the handles to pull your character up onto it.
All valves are labled and color coded, blue is a pressure out, green is either external pump IN or the internal tank to pump connection. The red valve lets you use the trucks pump to refill the water tank.
To use the deck gun from the drivers seat, the valves in the back have to be manually opened first.
The waterlevel is indicated on both sides of the tank via indicators, shutting off with every 1000l gone.
