Hero Tags are made from the parts and body from actual fire trucks. Every fire truck has a story and a history from the men and women who have spent countless hours on that truck saving lives. You are holding a piece of history to treasure and keep the memories alive.

Each tag is cnc cut and hand finished. Each tag is numbered as there is a limited amount of tags made from the truck. The tag you have will be unique as there is not another one out there exactly like it.

2006 Ferrara Fire Apparatus — HME Chassis
Originally placed in service as Engine 825 in Cave Creek, this 2006 Ferrara fire apparatus proudly served in its original red paint. However, its ground clearance was not ideal for the area, eventually leading to its reassignment as Engine 843 in San Tan Valley.
In March 2018, the apparatus was placed in service as Engine 844 and repainted green around that same time. It continued serving the San Tan Valley community in this role for several more years, responding to emergencies and protecting the surrounding communities.
Engine 844 remained in service until June 2024, when it was moved into fleet reserve and used as a spare apparatus. After approximately six months of reserve duty, the engine suffered a major mechanical failure. Following an evaluation, the decision was made not to rebuild it, bringing its service career to an end.
After years of dedicated service in Arizona, the apparatus was ultimately retired and scrapped. Though it no longer responds to emergencies, this Ferrara remains part of Arizona fire service history, remembered for its years of service in Cave Creek and San Tan Valley.
