SUBJECT: Purchase of Two Replacement Trades Vehicles and Portable Compressor
We are scheduled to replace two trades vehicles and our portable compressor this fiscal year under the CERF
program. One vehicle is a Ford F-350 (1 ton dump body) pickup and the other is a Ford Box Van. The
compressor is a pull-behind and is used primarily to blow out irrigation lines. All are beyond their projected
service lives. $114,026 was set aside for replacing the two vehicles and compressor per the CERF FY18
Planned Replacements.
We are requesting the replacements as follows: A F-350 1-ton dump in the amount of $54,089. A T-350 medium
roof transit van in the amount of $36,629, and a Dousan Air Compressor (P-185 WDO T4F) in the amount of
$23,676. The total cost is $114,394.
The vehicle purchase will be done through the Grappone Automotive Group of Concord, NH. The compressor will
be purchased through ATS Equipment. Their quotes are attached.
Thank you for your consideration.
Shawn M. Smith
