Hey everyone, I have been tasked with creating a 5 year vehicle and equipment purchase plan for next week's village board meeting on the budget, and I would like to get a couple of quotes from anyonethat has purchased a single axle hook lift truck with snow fighting equipment, as well as a fire engine within the last year. Thank you in advance.

We received an engine/squad last year and paid $650,000. Working on another one for 2027 and were told $1.1 million.

Jeff,
I will email you the quote from MacQueen for our most recent fire engine purchase but it was $1,237,000 with a 41-44 month lead time.
The last hook lift truck we ordered was in 2021 at a cost of $219,463.
Jeff,
We haven’t purchased any engines within the last year, but we are budgeting for one for next fiscal year. See below.
Pierce Fire Engine – The last one we purchased was ordered in October of 2021 and cost $735,420. We are budgeting for another engine next fiscal year and we are budgeting $1,037,400.
