First, I want to clarify the difference between fire engines and trucks... engines have the water and hoses. The trucks have ladders and extrication tools. Yes there is a difference, and we firefighters take it seriously. OK now to your question, the busiest apparatus (engine or truck) often changes from year to year depending on the calls answered by any particular company. Are you talking the busiest in a certain city, or the entire nation? The best way to research the busiest fire companies is by searching through "firehouse" magazine run totals. They list the busiest companies from each city every year. Hope this helps some. Respectfully submitted, H&L 20 Chicago
