I forgot to include that this is one of two twin 1996 E\-One Cyclones with 1500 gallon pumps and 1000 gallon tanks. Originally the two were supposed to be Sutphen's but there was a change in the chief's election prior to contract signing. There have been a number of mechanical problems with these in the past 11 years, but none with Butler's 1992 Sutphen platform. Recently bids were received for replacement of a 1985 Henrickson Darley with only two bids (Seagrave at $499,995 and Sutphen at $457,000), with the award to be made by our council this week.
