shouldnt the drvier be wearing a seatbelt? surely he wouldnt smak his head then....

Maybe a joke, but you are correct, should be wearing a seatbelt at all times when the vehicle is not stationary.

as i said, just jokes. i have actually read my SOPs and COSOs

Possibly was, their old one died and they were using the region spare 34.

probie_boy · « **Reply #357 on:** June 08, 2007, 04:20:21 PM »

I have heard that now Jervois, Yahl and Paringa have new 34's as well. Any more been dished out yet that anyone knows of?

and whats the go with the kangarilla and mclaren flat 34's? Have they disaappeared to a place with more suitable topography yet or what? Also, am i the only one that sees a problem with moving these trucks to flatter areas. That seems to me to just be avoiding the problem than dealing with it. It could also be a problem if these brigades or their appliances get responded to hilly/mountainous areas. Will these appliances just not go or what?

Just curious why is it that some brigades that do 10-20 jobs a year are getting refurbs and new applainces are going to briagdes that normally do 1-10 i think thats pretty silly.

Yes it's nice to get a new truck but will it badsically be 200,000 bucks wasted by putting a truck where it really won't get used.

Zippy · « **Reply #363 on:** June 13, 2007, 10:52:35 PM »

I have to agree with that...Refurbs should be going to any brigade with less than 30 calls a year. Sure the Water capacity of the truck's that are going to those brigades are required (i.e 3000L)...but why not have Mitsubishi Canter built up for 3000L

....i guess they need a crew deck for running grass fires ey...

On a lighter note...our 1989 model 34...has only done 38000km

such a new truck

Alan (Big Al) · « **Reply #364 on:** June 13, 2007, 11:05:16 PM »

Ours did 34,000km in nearly 20 years our new one has done 11,000km in nearly two years......

I suppose a few trips to moores and NE isuzu have accounted for that

5271rescue · « **Reply #365 on:** June 15, 2007, 07:45:50 AM »

I did hear that brigades that did less than 30 calls per year would get a refurb appliance,but as you cane see this is not being done,may be CFS don't have enough second hand appliances to go around.Or when they do send a appliances for refitting its full of RUST

TillerMan · « **Reply #366 on:** June 15, 2007, 12:35:07 PM »

I believe the figure is less than 10 calls you get a re-furb...

pumprescue · « **Reply #367 on:** June 16, 2007, 10:50:15 AM »

They need to start thinking about cycling the first lot of 34's even, I mean Taplan for example, 5 calls last year, most they have ever done is 16, why on earth do they need a brand new truck, hmmm, makes you wonder. ah well, what can you do.

Zippy · « **Reply #368 on:** June 16, 2007, 11:57:38 AM »

hehe have change-able Callsign's on the trucks and have a standard stowage layout.

5271rescue · « **Reply #370 on:** June 25, 2007, 07:57:12 PM »

May be its going for more repairs?

?

pumprescue · « **Reply #371 on:** June 26, 2007, 08:37:38 AM »

Still out for repairs, depends how long that takes, this might be a fill in for a while, I think the CAFS is in for major surgery.

I agree Pumprescue, this is a disgraceful waste of tax payers money. Considering there are brigades out that do that many calls in day that have not seen a new truck in a number of years it really doesn't seem to make any sense at all.

Taplan may need a replacement vehicle but do you really think it is wise to have a $250,000 vehicle sitting there when a re-furbed one would do just as well - crazy.
