Tinley Park FD added a new battalion buggy to their fleet in July. Battalion 49 covers the south-west portion of Tinley Park and is staffed out of station 49. Battalion 49 is a 2020 Chevy Tahoe.

From Oak Forest firefighters union local 3039 Facebook:
Well, we have good news and bad news! Bad news first…we currently do NOT have any Oak Forest fire apparatus “in-service”.Our neighbors to the west, Village of Tinley Park Public Safety and Orland Fire Protection District, IL are each letting us use an engine to keep from a break in emergency services.The good news, we’re being told we have allocated funds and a thumbs up to purchase new fire apparatus! We are happy and hoping to move forward with that process as quickly as we can.

From Oak Forest Fire Fighters Union Local 3039 Facebook Page;
Don’t be alarmed if you see a Tinley Park Fire engine responding with Oak Forest firefighters in it… our aging fleet is catching up with us! Thankfully, our neighbors at the Tinley Park Fire Department were generous enough to lend us one of theirs. We officially no longer have a ladder truck (previously a 2001 ladder truck) protecting our multi-story buildings in town. Our reserve fire engine (a 1999) doesn’t have functional emergency lights and can’t be put in service if one of our front-line engines goes down (E39: 2006, E40: 2020)
thanks Martin

I took in the 2-11 in Blue Island at 13039 Western Ave on 9-7-23. I arrived well after the fire was knocked, but got some pretty good apparatus photos.

Excerpts from patch.com:
Tinley Park board members voted to chip in 80 percent of the cost for a new fire engine for Tinley Park Fire Department at last week’s village board meeting.
The new engine costs $830,000 total of which the village will pay $637,989 and $159,497 will be paid for by the Tinley Park Fire Department Association. Officials did not immediately respond to questions on who will pay the remaining $32,514.
According to trustees, the engine runs a high price due to the newness of the machine and the special design. The fire association formed a committee of firefighters to determine which features they would need most on a new engine before purchasing.
The average cost of a new fire engine ranges from $600,000 to $1 million, officials said.
The engine is being bought through the Houston Galveston Area Council Purchasing Cooperation, an inter-governmental sales program. The resolution approving the purchase noted the purchasing cooperation’s prices were subject to a competitive bidding process.
