They are now looking into Chevy pickups to see how they would work.

Wow, they are making some huge changes on bids...Seagrave Marauder engine & trucks , Pierce Rescue's, now possibly Chevy SUV's

The Fords I am told were a few inch's too long.
The Chevy's they are looking at I believe are the Silverado and Sierra, will double check on that.
They would be 4 door crew cabs with a cap on the back.
This would be for replacement of the older Chevy SUV's and Ford Expeditions as needed.
