    We are running 9 front line ALF Engines, 4 ALF - Reserve Engines and 2 ALF TL front line and 2 ALF reserve TL as well as a front line ALF rescue and a ALF spare - while someone already said it no rig is perfect and they all have their inherent hitches - but with an aggressive preventive maintenance program (kudos to our shop personnel) we have experienced few if any front line breakdowns of the ALF's - our shop stocks hard to get parts. a Preventive maintenance program is key to keeping any truck in the tip top performance range.

    Sounds like another case of "The Emperor has no clothes" no one wants to see them for what they really are. Who heads up that group "Boss Tweed" and is their firehouse next to Tammany Hall?

    how dare you question the fact that "the emperor has no clothes" you should be admonished for asking such an honest question - what are those trailers for? How dare You! - I asked the same question several months ago and was meet with silence! "I am mad as hell and not going to take it any more!" (I think that was a movie quote) - lol - I don't want to hijack the thread - Great job NRFD

    The NYC Urban Area Work Group (which includes NYC, Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester, Yonkers, PA of NY & NJ) about two years ago had all members agree to purchase a medical evacuation vehicle - (similar to a plan in Northern NJ) - the idea was to buy identical vehicles which would be operated locally but be available regionally - each partner agreeing to buy at least one & NYC buying a few. The spec has not gone out to bid yet but should soon. I don't see the vehicles being delivered for some time yet.
