Seems rather expensive if you ask me, when the city is complaining if shortfalls in the budget. For $1m could the district instead buy a fleet of sprinter vans that are better on gas mileage and still get our first responders to the scene of 95% of regular calls? Maybe I’m wrong but is it really necessary to drive these engines 11,000 miles a year for calls that rarely involve actual fires? That’s 158 miles a day! Seems like a waste of money on buying a fancy new rig that isn’t really the right vehicle for the job…
