[quote name='firesafe91' post='185920' date='Feb 2 2008, 09:00 ']I noticed in the 2008 CIP budget that Memphis has included $328,000 to repair a damaged aerial truck and $198,000 to repair a damaged pumper. I am assuming that these are the rigs that used to be assigned to T3 and E55?
I also noticed that they have 7 medical SUVs, 9 ambulances, and 10 SUVs in the budget.
It should be a good year for the MFD fleet.

You're right on the allocations, but I'm not sure all of those expendatures are actually going to be made this year. I feel good about the SUV's since the sedans are really racking up the miles. I know we are having "issues" with the current ambulance vendor and I doubt we will be buying any before FY2009 (which begins July 1). You are right on about T3 and E55, but I'm don't know if work will begin on either of those before FY2009, either.
Chief Ludwig might shine more light, if he is so inclined or disposed.
