At this time, I am requesting authorization to <br />purchase one 1988 Ford cab and chassis from Glen's Truck Center in the amount of <br />$10,693. Having the frame shortened and water tank built will happen after we get the <br />truck. We will be doing the actual change over of the jet machine. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />I have looked for other used trucks at Mankato Mack, St. Cloud Truck Sales, Custom <br />Motors, and Glen's Truck Center. What I have found is that those dealers don't have <br />what we need or the price is $15,000 to $25,000 on what they do have. This truck <br />happens to be a cab-over which makes it somewhat cheaper than a conventional truck. It <br />is more suitable for our needs, because of its overall length. A new truck of this type and <br />size would be approximately $32,000 depending on equipment options. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />I am requesting authorization to purchase on 1988 Ford cab and chassis from Glen's <br />Truck Center in the amount of $10,693. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
