Hopefully they do  good for 5 years so they get the bid next time

Yonkers FD is rumored to be working on the specifications for a replacement to their 2007 American LaFrance Tandem Axel Rescue Truck. With the fact that Yonkers has been taking on Ferrara's for their recent apparatus acquisitions, one has to be interested in knowing whether or not Yonkers FD will look at who FDNY goes with as far as their New Rescue 1 rig is concerned.

Ya gotta remember, the lowest bidder who meets the spec gets the bid.  There's no preference given to any builder.
