What is the name of the Dealer that you got estimates to buy Fire Trucks from?

Very simple question mike. Is ***** ***** the friends of elk creek promoter and salesman for E one Firetruck corp the source of your estimates?

Who and what companies will get fat off of district monies?

Please post the truth, not like i don't know but concerned taxpayers have a right to the truth

We will not exact costs until the time of purchase, as we would send them out for competitive bid. We have been estimating based on current prices other departments have paid, or on advertised prices. Based on current estimates provided by a dealer last month, we have to figure on $350,000 each for a type 3 engine, and $350,000 each for a tender. In comparison, a type 1 engine averages around $525,000 and a type 6 brush truck similar to ours would cost around $180,000. The type 3 interface engine takes the place of both of those.

What dealer did elk creek consult with?

What difference does it make?
Where does it say that any specific dealer would be chosen.
I thought I saw "competitive bid" in his post.

The difference is the citizens have a right to ask and a right to know!

Just because he says it does'nt mean it's true!

So what company was it from again?

Stick to the facts, right MD??

A budget value by definition is an estimate. It is NOT a commitment to an expenditure. It may have been picked out of the sky, or by counting the number of holes in an acoustical tile. It is simply the amount allowed for in the budget.

Do you have anything significant to question?
