I would like to see fire trucks, ambulances, etc., painted a hot day-glo pink for better visibility.

Cuts down accidents, makes it easier to see.

Costs the same as regular paint.

While I wouldn't call it a gimmick, yeah, it seems like breast cancer research is really well funded these days. All the runners, the breast cancer mustang, pink vaccum cleaners- give some other cancers a chance.

One of the local concrete companies here in Chicago (Prairie, I think) has a pink concrete truck in its fleet. I know it's for breast cancer, but a concrete truck?

We also have pink garbage trucks and street cleaners downtown.

Jesus. We've already got inflation, recession, expensive gas, big problems in the Middle East and bad music. Bring back the day-glo fire engines and we're really right back in the '70s. Start the disco now.

Painted for the Penis Cancer Fundraiser

He's a fireman and he's okay,
He sleeps all night and he works all day,
He puts out fires,
He works long shifts,
He rescues cats from trees,
His shorts are neon colored,
And end well above his knees!

i agree lets fund other cancers. Prostate is a good one. So is ovarian because stupid doctors don't remove the ovaries when they do the uterus because according to them uterine cancer doesn't spread.

i have a 32 year old daughter with 6-12 months to live if the chemo doesn't work because of a doctor like that and she has 4 kids.

my upstairs neighbor just died. He had colon cance but don't worry it won't spread. sure it won't like hades it won't.

THAT is one UGLY firetruck, place a FEW large ribbons or one HUGE one around it and it would at least look good.
This one looks like it was done by a 5y old with ribbon stamps

The fact that this is breast cancer awareness month made this a pretty easy guess to why the color

I have to say that, as a male, I am extremely aware of breastscancer.
