Pick the truck for the job in front of you, then read the unlock line in the station spawner. The official description advertises more than 20 vehicles in six categories: engines, ladder towers, tankers, brush trucks, rescue ambulances, and chief cars. It does not publish speed, water capacity, or an XP price for each model.
What to spawn
| Call in front of you | Useful choice | Why |
|---|---|---|
| House, apartment, or office fire | An available fire engine | Beginner footage uses the engine hose, which connects to that truck. A handheld hose is described as too weak for a large fire. |
| Tall structure | A ladder tower, if you can spawn one | The category is official. Exact ladder controls are the prompt on that truck. |
| Long or spreading fire | A tanker or brush truck you already own | Categories are official. Tank size and refill rules are not. |
| Need to arrive first | A sedan, cruiser, or other light vehicle you own | These are described as the quick arrivals, with little specialized fire equipment. |
| People are the main job | A rescue ambulance you own | Use it when the call is rescue-led. The house-fire example still finished a living rescue from an engine. |
| Airport plane crash | Follow the call objectives | The crash is an official call. A published roster also lists an Airport Crash Truck as a premium unlock. Confirm that label before you plan on it. |
There is no measured S-to-D truck ranking. Two creator examples disagree on purpose: an engine for the hose-and-rescue house fire, and a faster car for a brush fire. Both can be right for those jobs.
How unlocks are labeled
The spawner is the authority. A vehicle guide dated October 7, 2026 lists 31 names. Most use a cumulative XP number. Exceptions in that list:
- Fire Engine, Econoline Ambulance, Brush Truck, and Duty Sedan are available at the start.
- Fly Car is a two-day login streak.
- Airport Crash Truck is a premium purchase.
- Chief's Car is a premium bundle.
- Command Tahoe can be hired by a Fire Chief.
Daily challenges are a separate XP source, opened from the firefighter menu with the arrow at the top left. That same guide says days 2 and 7 of the week can award vehicles that are not on the ordinary XP list. It does not name those two vehicles. Do not treat the Fly Car streak, the 7-day On Shift badge, and the day-2 or day-7 challenge as one mechanic.
Update 1 says seven vehicles and one ladder-engine livery were added. It does not name them, so they are not added again as a second roster. Each named truck on this site is the October 7 list, with the official category pages kept separate. Open the model you care about under Vehicles and compare its reported label with the spawner.
Spawn at the fire station. The first session shows a small set, then more entries as the menu's own requirements are met.
