more concerned as to why they take a crew of four in a fire truck that probably costs close to a mil and probably a few thou per hour to operate to the grocery store ten blocks away when they could send two guys(I even grocery shop by myself!) in one of their 4-5 suburbans

They do it so they can respond to a call if need be.

Prob depends on the station. Usually only headquarters have extra vehicles. Substations you are stuck with just emergency vehicle, therefore, that's your only choice.

Because you know their schedules and what they have had to deal with. Could be stopping in a way back from a call.
I am from a family of firefighters and you would be amazed at the stupidity they deal with from people thinking paying taxes makes them more important. The pay is mediocre at best and they do not get compensated for any food.
