Every dollar will go toward buying updated gear like hoses, helmets, and other essentials the Fate Fire District needs to save lives.

The 2007 Freightliner fire truck has just over 19,000 miles on it and could be perfect for a construction or landscaping business, perhaps even a surprise Father's Day gift.

The online auction ends Tuesday afternoon at 5 p.m.
