Coming from a former big city department that essentially laundered funds through their apparatus repair shop, I feel the pain of not having enough serviceable trucks.
My big city’s fleet/mechanics are a racket. We lease the rigs from them and then pay them to work on the leased rigs. And we always have 10+ in the shop.
Yeah pretty much the same for my former dept. Truck purchases came from the fire budget, then given to fleet management, who then leased it back to the dept, who then had to pay for repairs that rarely were done correctly or timely.
