Presenting a demonstration a Chevy Suburban tailgate canopy illustrating the Bumperchute attached to the rear of a Chevy suburban-which are vehicles commonly used by first responders as rear-vehicle command posts with sensitive equipment installed in them-Bumperchute will exhibit to first responders the advantages of having a Command Post area that's protected from sun glaring on computer screens, wet weather jeopardizing sensitive equipment, and wind annoyances like important paperwork being blown around.

As the FDIC puts it, "FDIC has proven year after year that it is the premier conference and exhibition for the fire industry. With the largest gathering of decision-makers, trainers and experts-as well as manufacturers and suppliers, FDIC serves as a spearhead for networking, relationship development and future revenue growth."
This seven-day, 2013 conference will feature over 200 classroom sessions with engaging and important topics ranging from fast food restaurant fires to aircraft emergencies.
