GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. -- The Pinecroft Sedgefield Fire Department knows what it's like to respond to fires were hydrants aren't close by.
That's why they're looking forward to getting the department's new super-tanker soon.

The new fire engine will replace three other trucks from the fleet.
It holds 3,000 gallons of water, which is three times more than a typical fire truck.
The fire chief says having just one truck on a scene will help get more firefighters on the ground to fight fires.
With good maintenance, the fire department says the fire engine could last for 30 or more years.
