So. Is everyone ok over here???

I call 100% bullshit on that..... you mean to tell me that Oregon doesn't do safety checks? That CA somehow is the only one that can do that? I've seen lines of BLM and forest service trucks come from AZ and they didn't stop in Blythe for "safety" checks. Oregon obviously has their own mechanics... oh and the trucks aren't made to drive for hours at a time??? WTF...have you been to oregon or Montana or Wyoming? the SAME friggen trucks drive for hours jut to get somewhere.

Anytime a piece of equipment goes into a new area the acting fire incident command will give the trucks a once over, think of it like a pre-race inspection. So yes when Cal-Fire sends a rig into Oregon they give it a once over, Same thing for the rigs coming in from Az. While they don't stop them in Blythe for inspection, they do it at the Command Center before they go into the field.
