Modifications to the vehicle for 2012

In an effort to get more people on the vehicle, we decided to reinforce the top structure and allow people to stand on the upper level. This was achieved by bracing a 8 foot wide I-Beam to the truck frame and using that as a load carrying support.
In addition, the major improvements included:

  • Significantly lighter and more usable drawbridge
  • Larger sound system,
  • Funcional PA system controlled by the driver
  • Improved operating protocols
