Reno-Tahoe Airport just unveiled its newest emergency hero: the “Rhino,” a 60,000-pound firefighting beast built for aircraft emergencies. Packing 1,600 gallons of water, PFAS-free foam, and a 700-horsepower engine, this all-wheel-drive rig hits 50 mph in 22 seconds—ready to save lives and protect the environment.
