THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The district plans to purchase a 2025 Dodge Ram 5500 crew cab 4x4 with a crane-rated service body from Service Truck Depot for $181,527.69, replacing Unit 3595, a 2009 Ford F-450 fleet service truck. The new unit adds hydraulic crane, rotary screw compressor, outriggers, large tool storage, inverter, and lighting to support field maintenance and OES mutual aid work. While the truck vendor is selected, this underscores a growing, specialized fleet maintenance capability where tool, equipment, telematics, and service providers have ongoing opportunities.
Service body includes Auto Crane HC-8x, BoxAir RS 40 compressor, hydraulic outriggers, workbench bumper, and significant compartment storage.
