Steve from my understanding is when the demo engine arrives it will be 1 then 2 will be a spartan with a spartan in reserve then when the ordered rig comes in 2025/26 that will likely be 1 then the demo 2 and whatever spartan is better or both will be spares and fp got a demo ambulance a few months back an series road rescue and they have an identical medicx brand e series coming next year so when that happens we will have a 2019 as a spare and our old 2015 is now the new Franklin pk public works sign truck

Thank you Harry, I grew up in Franklin Park in th 70’s and 80’s. Will they keep the existing engines as reserve?
