Here's an update from Michael D. Douglass:
Hello everyone, I wanted to share some exciting progress on the new fire truck we've ordered. It's a custom-built unit featuring an SVI body mounted on a Sutphen Ambassador chassis. The chassis is scheduled to arrive at the SVI plant next week, and the team is already making great strides in the build process.
We're aiming for completion by early fall, but so far everything is going smoothly and ahead of schedule—so it might be ready even sooner than expected. I'll keep you posted as we move forward.
I’ve attached a PDF showing the preliminary graphics designed by SVI. These have been approved, with one small change: the lettering will be done in gold leaf instead of the orange seen in the design. I’ve also included a photo of the body subframe and six images from the fabrication process. You can view these photos on SVI’s website in the "Watch Your Truck Being Built" gallery at www.svitrucks.com.
If you have any questions or need more details, feel free to reach out. Thanks for your continued support and interest in our department.
Stay safe,
Michael D. Douglass
