Slightly off center . . .: "This fire truck brought to you by ...

STOCKERTOWN, Pa. — They may not be able to change their tires in less than 20 seconds, but Stockertown's fire department is looking for something decidedly race car-like: sponsorship. The tiny borough of 650 residents bought a fire truck but hasn't been able to scrape enough money to pay for it. So the fire chief and the City Council president dreamed up the idea of selling advertising space on the fire truck. So far, no one has signed on."

Minneapolis fire trucks have had advertising for a couple of years now... whats next "Dunkin Donut ads on police cars? or Lawyer ads on ambulances?"
