\nAccording to one of Chicago’s most famous poets, Carl Sandburg, it’s the City of the Broad Shoulders. There has been some debate about exactly what he meant by that, but we’d like to think it has something to do with the spirit of selflessness in its citizens. When there is public need, Chicagoans respond. It’s no surprise then that the Chicago Auto Show<\/a> always features lots of first response vehicles, military rides and other service organization transportation.<\/p>\n

With so few big debuts to keep us busy this year, we found ourselves admiring the plethora of cars, trucks and “others,” painted in fire engine red, black and white, or camo. We’ve assembled a gallery to show you what Chicagoans typically only get to see when there’s a crisis. There are cop cars, fire engines, snow plows, military vehicles, quads, motorcycles and a lot else to check out in the gallery below.<\/p>\n
