    It doesn't matter what the IA Lt. was doing, he should be setting the example. If he was speeding then he should have stopped placed the keys on the roof hands on the dash, with all windows down. If he gave the patrol officer lip which it looks like he did then it looks like he got what he had coming. Really strange that were 4 other cats that cost by though.

    US Tanker: Just delivered to Quaker Street FD Schenectady County just off of I-88.
    This is an answer to the request from a commanding officer for a tanker & manpower or an engine & manpower. Quaker Street wanted to make this unit truly a multipurpose unit and fill the requests of other departments while utilizing only one unit. They also needed a second piece of apparatus for a back-up.
    This unit is built on a Freightliner chassis with a Hale 1250 gpm Hale pump with an APR 2000 gwt.

    The grill lights will be shutoff when the parking brake is applied, they can be turned back on or overridden by the switch on the console if there's a need for them to be on. The bumper lights will remain for protection as they are below the operators sight line.

    I'm wondering with a front mount pump have you considered shutting off the grill and bumper flashers? That way the operator can see without being blinded by the LEDs . The other option is that you could at least knock them down the LEDs to a lower power?

    KME used to be on State Contract I think that contract has expired with little action.
    I too have seen a dealer bring two bids. I have also seen a bidder write the specification for a customer, not a surprise there but he also wrote the FEMA grant, and the FD surprise above all surprises they awarded him the bid! Legal, I think NOT1
    If you receive one bid you can take that one bid. You will have to show that the bid was publicly advertised at least 14 business days before the bid opening. You do not have to have to send the bid to three bidders but you will have to send the bid to those who request it. You can charge a nominal fee for the bid package but I am not sure what the guidelines are.
    Yes it is true you can buy what you want but please do this if you want brand x be honest about it with the salesmen from brand y and z. I will be happy to give you a qualifying buy but please don't waste my time and lead me along it makes for a much better relationship with other dealers who may need someday. I know it's business but I am honest with my dealings I think i should receive honesty back.
    Last but not least T-6061 is T-6061 no matter where you buy it, as is 304L Stainless Steel. We all buy the same pump and the same engine. I can build you an engine that is just as good as brand X,Y, and Z. You shouldn't discount a truly competitive bid.
