This refurbishment/repair project is going to run us right around $16,600. Once done, we should be able to get another 15 years or so of service out of this one.

It is going to look real good Neil. I made a call to a friend at the one station he sent me a link to their webpage that has the news about their new squad. They have sent the final drawings to pierce. Here is the link Neil.

Welcome to : North Point-Edgemere Volunteer Fire Department

and I am willing to bet that it will be carrying a $450-$500 thousand price tag..... and that is without equipment.

That it is Neil. Not as big as the only heavy rescue in the county with a crane but still big. Their jurisdiction for the squad only is the entire southeast portion of the county with mutual aid into the city. That it will Neil.

105mph!!! thats more wind than most north east usa buildings are designed to handle!!!

i just got off the phone with FICMrepair and the guy is awesome to deal with. very honest and informative. unfortunately my ficm is not the normal failure of broken solder and under rated capacitors on the power side. mine exploded components on the logic side, beyond repair. SO.....$800 gets me a upgraded new ficm through him.

Ouch Aaron, that hits the wallet hard.

Just got back from a one car roll over with one occupant. This is the 2nd roll over that we have had in the last week and the third or fourth wreck since the first of the year.
