*HOPEFULLY* they learned a lot of hard lessons with there first FDNY contract; took a good look at themselves, there product, manufacturing practices, made some changes and invested in some better quality materials for this next round of bottom dollar truck company's.
Is it the quality of materials or quality of workmanship? The build specs spell out what materials and brand names to use. If if the materials are failing, then it's a build spec issue. If the mounting or installion of materials is poor, then it's the manufacturer's issue. Poor quality of construction is the number one complaint of the low bid awards.
KME was getting bashed from day one, but as of right now, the engines are doing well minus some small adjustments and repairs.
